can you do this?

i was wondering if you can put either a 16in rim or 17in rim on a set of
33x12.5x16.5 tire?

any input would be great, the only reason im asking is because a friend of mine is willing to sell me the tires for only $50 and they would look sick on my 2001 screw 4x4

wont work

EDIT: Theres no possible way to get them to work on the 16" wheel. There might be a way to get them on a 17" wheel but its gonna be for offroad only and i really doubt a shop will even attempt it

If you won't buy the wheels to fit the tires dont buy them. Not a good idea.
