Default Will rims from '17 Silverado fit '05 Sierra?

I'm looking at replacing my rusted rims with OEM Silverado rims. I attached pictures of the types to show the comparison between what I have and am looking to buy. Both are 6 lugs. I figured they should fit, but hoping someone would know for sure. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks!

They will fit as they both have a 5.5 six bolt pattern. Depending on what the size difference is your speedometer might be messed up. If your original ones are 265 / 75 16 and the 17s were 265 70 17 for example those tires are the same size so you won't have to mess with the speedometer because it would already be accurate. Those two tire sizes have the same diameter

have the dealer reset the tire size in the ebcm to correct for tire size changes.

Thanks for the input. I did end up picking them up (waiting for the lug nuts to come in). I was able to compare the figures of these two rims on RockAuto, which showed the bolt patterns (same), the width, and offset... which caused me to do more research. I stumbled across this website which seemed pretty helpful, maybe it'll help someone else. It shows the speedometer error would be 0.14%, which seems negligible. This link doesn't show it on the desktop, but on my phone it also showed I'd lose one revolution per mile. I don't think I'm going to bother having the dealer adjust it.
