You need to match the string type to the design of the guitar. You also need to consider if the added tension of steel strings can be supported by the guitar. Given all that, you can use different string types, but sometimes you need to adjust intonation by altering the neck tension and bridge position. The bottom line, assuming the guitar can handle it, is how pleased you are with the sound and touch.

Should the strings on a new guitar be changed after a few days?
Not normally. You will get a variety of answers on this. In Rock it really doesn't matter. Replace a string when it breaks. No one will know the difference. With a classical guitar, the change in tone between new and old strings is more noticable. But I would not change the strings on a classical guitar until I broke one. Then I'd probably change them all. I have heard that some bands change the strings on the guitars before every gig. This is plain stupid.... just tying to be cool.
