Will 2002 GLE wheels fit 2002 SE tires?

I'm interested in purchasing/trading 2002 GLE rims for my SE. Will the GLE 215/55/17 wheel fit my 225/50/17 tires? I know the GLE wheel is narrower than the SE, so I'm not sure if it is still possible or safe to swapt them on a SE.

I believe the wheels are the same size, and it is just the tire that is different.

Okay... Since the Gle Wheel is the same size as my SE wheels does anybody want to trade me their 2002 GLE wheels, or are there any 2002 GLE owners that want to sale their wheels?

I don't need the tires I plan To keep the Bridgestones for about a year.
