Will fitting my 2001 TL with 17" wheels make the ride much harsher?
What about 18"? Is the difference in handling worth it?

Certainly lower profile tires will have stiffer sidewalls and a harsher
ride.(that's where the improvement in handling comes from)

Difference in handling worth it?;depends on how you drive,how you like
rough rides.
It also may mean faster tire wear.

IOW;YMMV.
