Quick question, my Kadjar has 19” wheel with summer tyres. However I have a set of 17” Kadjar rims with winter tyres... what changes/issues will I have?

The 19" rims are for Low Profile Tyres and the 17" are for High Wall Tyres, which the latter are more suitable for winter driving, especially in snow, with the appropriate tread. Also, you are able to fit chains to high wall tyres if required. Providing the overall wheel diameter with tyres fitted is the same, there should be no problem.

If you enter the tyre sizes here , the dimensions and speedo changes will be calculated. To prevent fouling of wheel arches or suspension, it would be best to use the same offset as Renault use for the 17" wheels.

You won't have any issues, they are the same rolling diameter. Only when folks get wheels without TPS valves fitted is there an issue, ie, from an earlier qashqai, but all Kadjars have TPS so you will be fine.

GSA, I'd make a call to the manufacturer of the belts. I'd also try them anyway.
