Some thoughts off the top of my head...

All other variables equal, cornering should be better since the shoulder of the tire is shorter and less prone to flex. Tread depth should not be affected.

If tire diameter is larger than OEM then the speedo should be calibrated accordingly.

0-60 times may suffer.

Since the tire shoulder is shorter the tire's ability to absorb shock is lessened. This results in a harsher ride and exposes the wheel to more shock and possibly damage.
