16s will handle marginally better but if youre strictly asking what looks better then I'd say 17s.
They bring the car up to date with more modern sporty cars.
16s and the amount of rubber that surrounds them looks far too retro for my liking.

I prefer the look of 17's normally too but looking at your photos the spoke pattern of your 16's seem to suit the car better than your 17s do.
