Compare the tire sizes here: https://tiresize.com/comparison/ The 205's will be smaller and make the speedo inaccurate.

This will definitely affect the vehicles handling and stability. Remember the roll over problems Explorers had in the 90's? I would keep the recommended tire size on the vehicle.
