The specific tire/compound may be the biggest factor, but the sizing differences would also impact handling.
You rim and sidewalk are larger as is the width and resultant contact patch.
The turn in, body roll/weight transfer, and other handling characteristics would all be affected.
All things are tuned in harmony, so while in theory you'd think things like a wider tire would be better it could actually have a negative impact in the full system.
