Should I use these Pathfinder Snows on a new TRD OR Premium

    I travel to Vermont from NY for skiing (though not sure what the slopes will be like this year). I am trading in my 2014 Pathfinder next week for a 2020 ORP. I have a set of Blizzaks that I only put about 12k on already mounted on rims. My tires are 235 x 65 x 18 so they are slightly smaller https://www.tacomaworld.com/tirecalc?tires=265-70r17-235-65r18 .

    Is it OK to use these. The rims won't match as they look like stock Pathfinders right now. Should I just suck it up and get the correct size and new Blizzaks. I really like them as the hour plus on the backroads can get slick with ice and snow. I love the Blizzaks on icy / slick roads and I image the stock ORP tires are crap.

    I don't think I would bother getting rims again, I would just swap the tires out each season.

    Thoughts???
    What the RIMS look like:

    Are the Pathfinder 5 lug as shown in image? If so, you ain't mounting those on the 4Runner. However, 6 lug Nissan wheels 17" and over will interface with Toyota 6 lugs on a 4Runner. In fact, I'm fairly certain that the OEM wheel supplier is the same.

    If you're asking about tires on the ORP wheels, the wheels are 17", so no bueno with the 18" Blizzaks.

    If those are the exact rims, they won't work. 4runners are 6 lug.

    Thanks @MeefZah You are correct the Pathfinder is a 5 lug. I haven't picked up the 4Runner yet so I guess I jumped the gun. Looks like my friend who has a Pathfinder is going to get a nice gift this year. I'll pickup a new set of Blizzaks in the proper size. I just have to decide if I want to get rims or not.

    Thanks...
