5.5 is minimum for every manufacturer I can find, for 205-55's as well. I've never had a clearance problem w/ SPG springs - tho I don't often carry much load. Speed rating / sidewall stiffness will be a little more evident in lateral response if you pay attention to such. Tread width to rim width will probably make a 'cheaper' tire more evident. I would stay with an 'H' or better rating, but I accelerate for corners. Most speedos are a bit 'slow' anyway, thus the slight increase - less than 3% - makes me feel more 'on' than stock.
