Will they fit?

I am getting rid of my 2014 Altima 3.5 SL and moving to a 2017 Maxima SL.

My winter XI3 tires & wheels (OEM Nissan steel) on the Altima are 215/60/16 which are a perfect fit for that car.

My OEM wheels / tires on the Maxima are 245/45/18. Will my winter tires and wheels (OEM Nissan steel) fit on the Maxima and clear without issues? I know the speedometer will be off by about 2%. And most importantly, will it be safe?

I bought my XI3’s in Nov 2015 so they are only 1.5 winters old now so hoping I don't have to go out and buy another set of wheels.

Thanks!

I always use tirerack.com to find compatible tires and they do not sell a 16" winter tire package for you car

You could email Allen at Simplytire to confirm this.
