Yes, but think about how much lighter that wheel set would be in 17, including the tire weight of a 17 is often less than 18. So your car would be slower than the equivalent setup in 17. 1 inch of rolling diameter will not make up for the lighter wheels. And even if the times were about even, the lighter setup would feel faster and thats most important.
