Personally I think the larger 16-inch Viking rims are worth it, assuming you get some decent tires to match. I have two sets, the old ones have been demoted to winter use (chuckle). A 17-inch rim might need different shocks for best performance. Be aware that slush tends to freeze on the 3-spoke rims, and give you an amusement-park ride next morning until it falls off.
However: The larger the wheel, the more likely to get bent on a pothole or similar. I have had two straightened so far. Try to avoid hitting curbs, too...
