Just make sure the overall diameter of the wheel and tyre stays the same as the originals otherwise your speedo will be out.
i.e. if you going from 17" wheels to 18's the profile of the tyre will need to be 1" less than on the 17" wheels.
Specifically the 1'' less will be a 1'' bigger hole in the middle of the tyre, the outer circumfrence(sp) stays the same.
