rim question

I got a estimate on rims and tires for my max. They are 17's.
But since Ill be graduating in a year and getting a 5th gen I was wondering if I should still get the rims.
I was wondering if these 17s would fit a 5th gen. The rims are silver, so color isnt a problem with whatever color max i do get in the future.
thankyou.

edit:: oh they are Falken low profile tires.

heres the pic. They are Enkei

basically all 5 lug nissans fit eachother...

all you need to know is offset and width... diff rims look good / bad on diff cars
but i think i would go with 18s for a 5th gen at about 8.5in wide with correct offset, which i dont know)

I'm pretty sure you need 10mm spacers for the rear.

The offset is +35 ..isn't that okay? Or is it because its an 8.5" wide wheel?
