The lower profile tire (19) will likely have better dry weather handling due to the reduced carcass flex, but worse wet weather handling for the same reason, as well as a slightly harsher ride, and a noisier ride. But for an auto car, I wouldn't even worry about it. You gotta teach her to drive a stick so you can get a sports car with a sports cart tranny, which will make way more difference than 1 inch of tire flesh.., LOL..
