Default NEW 17 bullit rims, can i use my stock tires?

ok this might sound like a stupid question but im new to all this.anyway i have a stock v6 2005.im pretty sure everyone on here knows what the rims look like on the stock car,i think there 16' anyway im not too fond of them.i just got new tires for the rims (the other ones wore out already).ive been looking around and i really like the 17' grey mettalic bullit rims ive been seeing on most of the members cars.i noticed there not too expensive either, about 129 per rim.anyway if i were to get these for my car would it need different tires than the stock ones i have right now on my v6 or can i keep them.ive only had these tires 2 months so if the rims need different tires that would really suck.

16" tires are not going to fit 17" wheels but for the price you are willing to pay just buy GT take-offs from the saleen website. They come with the tires.

Yeah go with take offs from Saleen. As far as your tires go look at it this way you would be trying to stuff a 17" diameter peg in a 16" diameter hole.
