Default Wheel size increase

Hey all... I own a 2000 Dakota Sport regular cab, V6 3.9L. It has the 15" wheels and I'm wondering if it would be possible to pickup the 17" RT style rims and install those without having to change anything? Any info is greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Where is a good place to find these rims ? I have a 98 Dakota, I suppose this would fit mine as well ?

You'll have to change your tires.

Other than that, you're good to go.
