Default airsuspension - changing tires

Do I have to watch for something with the airsusp when changing tires?
The car rides on normal - I dont think I ever will use high.
Just jacking it up like a normal tire exchange with wintertires?

Still on that airsuspension - the present wheels are stock 17 with 225/55 x17 Michelins on it. I want to change the wheels to a 17x8 instead the 7.5 as stated in the manual. Any interference issues with the airshocks?

I really appreciate the help the forum gives me with my new car

The answer is no. The only thing to to be weary of is to not start the engine with the wheels off the ground as to not screw with air suspension computer.
