    So I have the dstyle, not the plus, which has boring silver 16" wheels, that I'm looking to upgrade. Now do
    I stick with 16's or do I go up to 17"? I prefer the look of 17's, but does it majorly effect fuel economy and
    noise because I average about 300 miles a week. I'm not to worried about ride quality as I used to have a
    Suzuki Swift Sport which had stiff suspension.

    Fuel economy and noise are relative to the tyre rather than the rim/tyre size.

    If you increase the size of the wheel then you need to look at what aspect ratio of tyre you will need to minimise any speedo inaccuracy.

    This might help
