On 1.2 you'll be fine, i had 'em on my old one and too tbh there's not much difference in handling, i just wouldn't bother on a sport imo.
Pic of the my old 1.2...

No spacers, i got them brand new, so they were the correct offset. It that pic the car is lowered 30mm, but some guys on here - dutty, JLO etc - have seen at least 70mm on 17's (iirc).

I'm on 17" ET 43 plus put 5mm spacers all round (it didn't need 'em but the handlings better).
I love these wheels.... They are anthrecite supperleggeras17"
I have to say though even though I've lowered it 30mm on koni's it does still look a bit too talk fron the wrong angle.
If I adn't already spent so much I go for -60mm on 16"

that looks mint
I cannot see the advantages of 17s myself:
Make clios look like tractors, ruin the ride, ruin the handling, tyres cost a bomb, increase the likely hood of rubbing, slow acceleration (especially on something like a 1.2) and to top it all off are much easier to buckle/crack/bend.
Based on the above I would certainly go for 15s or if you like the look of bigger alloys 16s.
