No. The factory wheels are 16x8 0 offset. So there is no change in rim or tire position on the axle. It’s just that a 315/35” tire technically should have at least a 9” wide rim.
With all due respect, Of course there's change to the rim and tire position.
You went from a 8" rim to a 9" rim Factory wheels have a 4.5" back spacing, new wheels have a 5" back spacing and are 1/2" closer to the frame.
Does it matter probably not, When fully articulated the tire may rub the frame and inner wheel wells ;)

The center of the rim of either wheel is in the same spot. And the mounted tires of the same diameter and width are still in the same spot. Even though there is more backspacing with the 17” rims the tires are no more likely to rub on the 17” rims than they were on the 16” rims.

That is only if you keep the same backspacing(given same width)/wheel offset.

Higher backspacing means the wheels themselves are mounted further in. For example, given same wheel width, a 4" backspace vs 5.5" backspace, the 5.5" backspace is 1.5" further in and closer to the frame.

Edit: To add, if we're comparing different width wheels, 9" wheel with 4.5" backspace and 8" width with 4" offset would not affect track width as the offset is the same.

Agreed, I get what you are saying
 
Weird. Those look like SCS F5 wheels to me.
SCS F5 wheels look like Bradley, the Bradley's have been around a lot longer.

Bingo! since 1983 OG JDM Bradley (I) was released and this design model V wheels came out in 1988 popular on 40s, 60, 70 and eventually 80 series
