going to a larger rim has nothing to do with the wheel gap.. (unless you get the wrong size tires) The wheel gap will be the same. the outside diameter of the 16 vs 17" tires should be identical. Its just with the 17's there is less sidewall.


+1 quite correct. if you want less gap bwtween the tire and the fender without lowering you need to either go with massively oversized tires that will totally throw off your speedometer/odometer/gas mileage, or do some body sculpting to bring the fenders closer to the tires.
