I am contemplating a wheel purchase before spring so I don't have to mount my OEM wheels just to take them off again.

My question: I am looking at a 17x8 wheel.

Stock wheels are 17X7.

Would the OEM Primacy tires fit on the new wheels, or is there going to be an unfeasible amount of stretch/other problems?

Sorry for the potentially stupid question; I'm okay with wheel sizing and offset but nearly clueless when it comes to tire sizing.

Thanks for any help.
