I have not yet done so, but theoreticaly the 17s should be better because they put more rubber on the road.

I went autocrosing today, my first time.
My tYreS ended really bet up, I'm searching fro a set of tires for this and basically dont know were to go 16 or 17.
Basically this parking lot autocrosing is really hard for low profile tyres the pavment is cheap and the rain groves are all over the place.
