Be careful of bumps since there isn't much rubber between the ground and the rim. Performance wise, you'll get improved gearing with the lower profile, though only marginally since the rim is still fairly big. If you went to a 13 with 40 series tire then you'll see much more noticeable gearing improvement. For driveability I'd tend to lean towards the higher profile and protect my rims a bit better. But it's up to you.
