Hi.

Having just deciphered your post, () I would say that most agree that 16" are very good for performance, but 17" are a good upgrade. More tyre contact will give you more grip, but a bit less cushioning from the reduced profile.

Have a look here for some info:

PS - try using the search as this gets asked quite regularly!
