My concerns were generated when no one would or could give me specific
data about wheel load capacity. Also, Tire Rack has wheels for the EV
and the MV but not the EVC. The one wheel I found that had a posted
load rating was 1431 - I assume that is pounds and I assume you
multiply by 4 to see fit it will support a vehicle (if anyone has data
that contradicts my assumptions - please tell me)
The curb weight for the EV, MV and EVC is respectively 4220, 4348 and
5235. The GVWR is 5600, 5798 and 5997.
The GVWR for the MV and the EVC are so darn close that I would think
the alloys VW puts on the MV should work on the EVC. I wish I could
get someone to provide me with data that confirms this assumption.

The wheels should be designed to carry the maximum
weight of the fully loaded
vehicle whether it be an EV or an EVC. And, if I am
not mistaken, the fully
loaded weight for each vehicle is the same...the EVC
simply carries that
weight most often. Thus, I would be comfortable
using any EV wheels on the
EVC.
