The tires and rims must both be 20" of course (diameter of wheel must equal diameter of tire's opening), but other than that it's a matter of whether the widths of the rims are compatible. As long as you don't get rims that are a lot wider/more narrow than what you have now the tires should fit fine.
There are general guidelines (which I can't quite remember) about how wide a tire you should put on how wide a rim. The salesman oughta know this stuff, but watch that he doesn't try to sell you a bad combo just to make a sale. The people at the TireRack are great when it comes to this stuff, even if they *do* tend to err on the side of caution.
