need help with tires.

I have a set of winter tires which are 8.5 In wide. I found a set of rims for them which are 10.5 in wide. Would their be any problems? Both tires and rims are 18"

Wong size rims for the tires! Visit your local Infiniti/Nissan bone yard and pick up a set of '04 coupe wheels! They're perfect for your winter tires 8X18"!
