General Bigger wheels
ive put 17's on mine n a only had it 3 days now had the car 3 months its a slight diffrence but nuffin to worry about i just put a induction kit on my car last week and its gave me back some torque just go for it then lower it
Normally by just increasing the R of your wheels you must expect some (not too big) loss in acceleration and also some small gain in top speed. On the other hand increasing also the size of tyre lets say from 185 to 205 width for the R17 wheels then u will also loose something due to increased friction.
On the other hand you must have better handling (not in wet road though).
My personal opinion is that the R17 wheels are a bit too much for the car's power, (a R16 would be maybe better), but I also like them very much for the looks (also ordered the 1.4 16v Sporting GP)....therefore, I would say....go for it....
The lowering of the car (not much) will also improve the looks and handling but may become a bit bumpy.....
Good luck....

17's look to small on a grande punto imo, 18's be fine lowered lots but still need 19's to fill them arches
