Bigger rims and tires? Calibrate new size/circumference?

[JoulesThief]

I'm looking to add a set of 18" Austins to my e-Golf and get some Winter LRR tires. Anyone know if these should bolt right up? Seems like they will.

Oh and JoulesThief - VW will not "pull your file" and "audit" you for modding your car in such a minor way. Stop causing so much drama on here dude, I've been reading your posts and in almost EVERY thread you fly off the hook and start spouting wild claims. Take a chill pill man.

Newbie, here's a suggestion. Ignore function... find it, employ it.

Yup, sure will bolt up. Are you going to put winter tires on the stock wheels and use a more sporty tire on the 18s?

I occasionally peruse the Wheel and Tire Classifieds, but I'm only looking for 17's. I think the brakes on our cars would look silly behind 18s.
