This may give an idea about the genuine wheels offered. The 18" and even the 17" may give a rather harsh ride on poor roads. The 18" will also rub at full lock

Until you set up the charger, I would try driving around the block every week for 5-10 minutes. And maybe get an idea about your battery health, older batteries will still crank very well but may no longer keep a full charge (so it may discharge more while parked).
