One option is to have 2 sets of wheels/tires. A set of 15" inchers with affordable street rubber (like Cooper) and another set of 17" inch wheels/tries for track days and such. Best of both worlds. It doesn't take long to swap them out, especially with PIN drive wheels.

I think I'm going to do this thanks

If you're going to seriously autocross (not like what I'm toying with--just going out to test the car's traction limits and learn how it handles), then having a second set of 17s seems like a great way to go. Even sticky 15s are not going to handle like ultra-performance low profile 17s.

A little plug: Troy's got a nice looking set for sale
