Im getting new 17" bullitt rims/tires/TPMS for $425 w/ shipping.

I'll be selling my stock sixxers so it shouldnt cost me too much at all for the new set.

How much performance will be lossed from this conversion though?
Ex: If I do 0-60 in 6.5secs now what will it be with these newr rims? Any different?
Also how much more of a bumpy ride will I have?

You probably won't notice any difference in a loss of performance due to the larger rim/tire size. The 16" tires weigh just as much as the 17" tires do. The 17" rims weigh 21.5lbs each. The 17" rim tire combo rides really smooth.

There may only be two differences you'll notice, but nothing negative...the improved looks and quite possibly better handling with a slightly lower profile tire
