The new size is perfect and will have a negligible effect on the speedo. However the extra width of the tyre will probably lead to a very slight increase in fuel consumption. But on the plus side it will give you better road grip and better cornering due to the the smaller sidewall.

On second thought effect on steering will also be negligible since your new tyre's sidewall would measure 120.25mm as compared to the old tyre which would be 122.5. So its just better road grip and that's it.
