Default tire question: please help

i have a pair of kumho ecsta supras and i still have the stock tires at 30k .
the potenzas are really really dead, and i needed a new set. i was wondering if i can go with one end with 195/55/r15, and go with a smaller tire size for s03's for 205-50-15. can someone tell me if it would work out or not? and the consequences or benefits of using such a setup

i don't know, maybe if you run the 205s up front and the 195s in the back it might actually improve the handling--it seems like it would create a little more oversteer.
