New 9-3 conv, but which wheels?

hi,
I'm just about to replace my '98 9-3Conv with a nice shiny 2002 9-3Conv (UK spec).
I've just noticed that the standard non-Aero wheels have changed to 16" five spoke triangles (ALU37), but I can upgrade to the 17" ALU36 that are on the Aero for not much cash.
So the questions:
What does everyone think about the new ALU37s?
Generally, am I going to get a better ride/harder ride/noisier ride/better handling/less diving *whatever* with lower profile wider tyres?
I like the look of both, maybe slightly swayed by the way the car sits better on the 17"-ers... but aside from the looks I want to make the right decision..
While I'm here - anyone know why we don't get:
dash mount cup holder as a standard?
no bleeping parking things in the rear bumper/fender
no satnav option on the 9-3
Cheers all.
Richard.
