Thumbs down Correct Tire Size

I have a 2005 Mini Cooper with run flats and am now changing over to conventional tires. My car has the sports package so came with 195/55/16 size tires. I want a particular Michelin tire, but it only comes in the 205/50/16 size. Will this change interfer with the sports suspension, similar to the S model? If so must I stay true to the original size tires. I definitely want to stay with the original wheels. The car is used primaraly for touring. never spirited driving, only cruising along enjoying the ride. The purpose in buying the sports package was to get the better seats with leather etc.
