Tire Question

Ok, I was working on my exhaust the other day and while i was under my car the tires said to be mounted on a 16" Radial rim. But my rims are 17" alloy rims.

Is this bad? I do get a lot of road noise out of them but what else would it be messing with?

Thanks

What size are those tires? 245/50/16? Are your wheels still stock. If so, it's 16".

Yeah the tire size is 245/50/R16...
So i guess I was wrong...But they look so much like 17" rims...

Either way my tires suck because the road noise is so loud...

Thanks
