205/50/15 too short?

Need to buy new tires found a great deal on some Dunlop derezza Z102's in a 205-50-15 size.

Is that too short of a tire? How high will it rev on te highway?

Stock size is 205/60-15 which is around 25in overall diameter. The 205/50-15 is 23.1 overall diameter. When the speedo says 60mph you'll be doing 55mph.

65mph in 5th gear will be at 3250rpm instead of 3000rpm on stock size. It'll work, might look a little funny unless you lower the car some more.

Awesome thank you for the info.
