It all depends on the overall diameter and the weight of the wheel/tire combo. You could have stock a 185/70/14 tire and get a 17" package with 205/40/17 tires and your overall gearing would not change. But, that 17" wheel tire combo is likely a lot heavier than the 14" combo so you have less acceleration and longer braking distance ( your stock brakes have to work harder to slow down that heavy rotating mass). There are plenty of good 16's and 17's out now that are under 15 lbs. each which is really good. Most are expensive.
I'm not sure what those Enkei's from Unique weigh but that looks like a good deal.
