Will my speedometer read differently with my new rims?

I just got a set of rims, the originals were 15 inch the new ones are 17. the tires on the 17 inch rims are low profile tires: so i compared the two tires, one 17 and one 15. they are about the same size not even a half inch difference but just a hair wider. will this effect anything. its on a 1995 Honda civic. I heard that tire size doesn't effect hondas but I'm not completely sure. any help is appreciated
reading the first answer and looking at the graph he linked i determined that I only have a 0.1% difference. it says that at 859 rpm per mile the old rim ran. the new rim runs 860 rpm per mile
