new 2003 factory 17" wheels for 2000 ???

I am thinking about buy new 17" wheels for my 2000 accord 4-door V6 EX. My current wheels are 15" and tires are 205/65/15.
I want to get factory wheels which are EM-9RR or S6-SE1 alloy wheel for using honda accord 2003. You can find them on honda website.
Is it possible to install without any adjustment? I don't want to lower my car nor modify it. Some said it is okay, other said it can't. What is correct? I'm confused
Also what are good tires for 17" wheels? Is it 215/50/17 ok?
thank you.

of cause they will fit, there is nothing to worry about.

215/50/17 is best size for your car because it has same diameter as stock tires on your car.

here is list of places where you can buy them.
www.handaaccessories.com
www.hparts.com
www.hondaautomotiveparts.com
www.manhonda.com
and of cause
www.ebay.com

225/50/17 is bigger then it should be, its +1.4% bigger.
people are complaining about limited quantity of 215/50/17 tires, but 225/50/17 tire size has even less tires to choose from then 215/50/17.

I use this Tire Size Calculator

How'd you get your info? Is the one I use not as accurate?

205/60/16 - 25.7

215/50/16 - 25.5

225/50/17 -25.9

i use this -> http://www.powerdog.com/tiresize.cgi/tiresize.cgi to calculate tire sizes.
your is right, but like mine since it gives difference in percents as well, and I find it helpful because it tells how tire size will affect speedometer reading.
