Nothing is official yet and there has been no confirmation, so this could still be an error.

It seems that the MY17 cars will get the standard M3/4 wheels, with 10mm wider tires. It also looks like they will get Conti ContactSport rather than the Michelin PSS's.

IMO, I wouldn't call it an upgrade and glad I'm getting a MY16; the PSS's are far superior to the Contis and the 10mm width difference is negligible in all but the highest performance scenarios. And even in those cases, the PSS will compensate by being a better tire.
