My buddy has an 05 V6. From what I have found his wheels are 16x7 I think IDK and it should have if I remember 215/65. (ILL have to ask him to take a look at them but I think those are the tires he has on them.)

My question is would those tires fit stock bullit rims which are 17x8? so could you take the 05 stock tires and sawp them to 17x8 bullits?

Absolutely not!!! Never mount a wrong size diameter tire and rim to together. If he has 16in tires do not try to mount them on 17 wheels or vice versa. All you are doing is asking for a catastrophic failure.

Uh ya if the tire is 16in and you have a 17in wheel it will not go on! Not even possible. Or visa versa. Its the diameter from top to bottom of the lip where the beads are. get a tape measurer and start measuring your tire and you'll see what I mean.
