Even if you could mount it on a 17 inch rim it would likely put stress on suspension and steering components.


Here's a good website to learn about sizes and comparing.

I think you're better off seeing if you can can find a 16 on facebook market place or Kijiji or something. Like a less bald a freebie or cheapo pair for someone doing an upgrade etc.
That's pretty much what I expected but thought I'd ask to be sure.

Thanks guys
