195/50/15 in the front?

I checked the Miata.net tire size comparison and it seems 195/50/15 in the front is much closer in rotations than 195/55/15. Any thoughts on that? The selection is a lot more limited though.

I say go for it! On all four corners! What have you go to lose? A tiny bit of ground clearance is all.
And maybe the speedometer will be even more inaccurate than it already is. I'm running stock tire sizes and the car is always reading ~1 mph slow compared to the Garmin.
