The OP is talking about wheels AND tyres. This is standard wheel stuff, the rolling radius of those two will be about the same so its down to PCD and offset.

Ah yeah missed that!
A lot of modern cars have an option to select winter tyres in the options,I guess this recalibrates the speedo for a different tyre profile?
