yeah it will be fine. just make sure you get a tire that has a smaller side wall so it will remain the same size as your 17 inch wheels with tires if you dont want your speedo and odometer to be messed up if you calibrated it for your new size

I pity the guy who has to mount those babies, 17s are hard enough, but with the right pursuation and tools, it's done fairly easy if you don't have 15 year old equipment like us.

I agree samething here.Good equiptment is the key.
When you have crappy equiptment it is a he** of a fight.
