Default Stock X 16 inch rims to Rubicon 17s

If I decide to buy the 17inch Rubicon wheels, can I still use my stock tires from my rig right now and have the garage put them on the Rubicon wheels?

2010 Sport X Base

Another Question:

Do you guys think its a good deal for me to buy the 17inch Rubicon wheels and get then powder coated flat black and use them for as my new set? The wheels are priced at $200.00 for the four. And does anyone know how much it cost for them to swap the tires from my 16's to the new 17s?

thanks in advance-

Sorry but it won't work putting your 16" tires on 17" wheels. If you do find a set of tires to put on the wheels the swap should be under $100.
