Your odo will register less miles driven. Your speedometer will also read low, by 5.5% This is because the 17’s are taller by a bit less than 2 inches.

The 5.5% speedo error more likely to affect you than the odo error. At 70 mph indicated you will actually be going 73.9, although your speedo probably reads a touch low by design.
