Default Wheel Diameter Questions

My standard AU 1 Futura wheels are 15 inch. What changes to speedo would occur by fitting 16 inch wheels? The speedo would read slower than it actually is right?

Secondly, If I bought a set of 16 inch wheels (4) for my Futura and I kept an original one as a spare, what would happen to the car if I needed to fit the spare? In other words, if I had to drive a few hundred kays with 3x 16 inch and 1x 15 wheel, what would this do to handling? Would I notice much? Would it do any damage?

Cheers,

GK
