Yeah by like .05 seconds or something. It's really about weight. Personally I would say look into getting a lightweight 17" for looks and performance, you won't be compromising much on speed.

Depends on what you want to do, if you want performance go with 15" or 16" but if you want looks and performance, go with 17 with a low pro tire... 17" with a low pro tire is about the same diameter of a 16" wheel is a bigger tire. and get a light weight 17" wheel..... thats what im doing cause 15"s look stupid on my 4door

15" bronze. I got some 15" c8's on my teg w/ 205/50 and it looks very nice. Not too big to where it is too flash to attract atention, but not small either.
Felt a slight acceleration increase because of teh 50 series tire on a 15, but other than that it feels much tighter in the corners. PERSONALy i wouldnt get anything bigger than 15.
