    Anytime you change rim sizes and/or tire sizes, you can impact the handling of the bike. Going with a larger front rim will increase the effective rake on the bike and slow the steering down (essentially understeering into corners).

    Changing tire sizes can have a similar impact.

    You have to be careful with clearance on the front fender too... if you increase the rim size 1", the clearance between the tire and fender will be minimal.
