the winters are 17 instead of 18, and the wheel gap is so big now it literally does look like a Tiguan. i seriously need me some KWs. sigh
ahh i see... yea you should try running the set up and going for a test drive. from what i know, if the wheels are not hub centric, you might run into those vibration issues youre afraid of. but if you dont have any problems then it might just be fine to drive around on the current set up for a few days until you get the rings.

youre saying the wheel gap increased cos youre on winters ? dont you usually keep the overall tire diameter the same between summer tires and winter tires ? (even if you change rim sizes)
