Winter tire question

Hi Folks,

picked up a 16 SV about 6 months ago. On the hunt for some winter tires and wheels. Couple of questions.

I found a set of 215-50 17 that came off a previous gen max. The guy doesn't know what year but would these fit?

Also saw a set of 215-45-18 OEM 350z wheels. Would these fit? I know the tire size is a bit different but checked online and there is a 4% difference.

Mall help appreciated, snow is coming. I'm on a budget unfortunately and I'd like to pick something up.

According to Tire rack, 17's will fit. A little research on the offset would be prudent.

so it looks like the centre bore is the same but would be a bit of a difference in tac and diameter etc going to the 215-50-17.
Anyone see any issue with this though? Not a bad buy for $250 wheels and winter tires. Tires in great shape. 8/32

The G37 tires will be a better fit for the Max. Those you listed above are little small in diameter.
