Are there any benefits to using 255/50r20 instead of 235/55r20 tires on my 2021 Murano SL

The 255's will be "squishier" on the rim and may improve your cornering due to more flex available in the sidewall and a wider footprint, but at the cost of some extra friction and slightly lower gas mileage. The rolling diameters are almost identical, so the speedo will only be affected about half a percent.
