Stiff/harsh ride means that instead of the suspension absorbing the road and maximizing grip, it's passing it to the chassis with a higher potential to lose traction.

Thank you both, looking into these CSG Spec. The linked forum post is an excellent review, and I love how the site has an option to bundle the SPC LCAs, which I was planning on getting as well

The stock 17" wheels are already on the small side, for appearance I don't think I want to go any smaller.

No, on small side were 10" for original Mini . Or how about 15" on gt86?
I just thought that if one uses 17 for practical reasons, 16 may do aswell. Very same winter tires of 17size were 150eur for set more expensive then for 16 - my practical reason . Yes, more sidewall flex/more vague steering, but that is given for winter tires anyway, so that doesn't change it that noticeably.
