I only regret "upgrading" to the 16s because I decided to replace them after 500 miles. In fact, if I'd have known ahead of time that I'd go mod crazy shortly after taking delivery I would have bought a stripper and saved the dough for later. As it is, I'm paying to modify optional extras I paid extra for....just food for thought.
If you want opinions, here's mine....go with the 15s and start the hunt for those Panasports.

I have the standard 15" tyres, and kept up with 12 MCS's with 17" tyres around some very tight twisties this past weekend. I hung in there, but I think my narrower tyres were making more noise than theirs were. I've considered going with either a slightly wider 15" tyre on the stock rims, or up to a 16x7 panasport rim with, of course, much wider tyres. I heard that a with a wider/lower profile tyre, that steering is not as responsive. Is this true?

There's comments near the bottom about the steering response being slower with wider tyres....

good one alex...
I always look back to the 74 Nova Custom Hot Rod I had when I was a Kid...
It had narrow drag racing tires up front and big ole fatties in the back and it was an ease to turn, especially in an emergency.... WHOOOOSH!
But those were RWD....
I don't know the actual dynamics applied in FWD
