Just shows what dipsticks some mechanics are.
just fitted some Oettinger RE 17x8 rims to my T4.
fit perfect.
the load rating on the Oettinger's is 810 kg.
I also found some 235/45/17 tyres with a 710kg load rating, so everything is nice and legal.
will post pics soon.
Cant wait to see these pics mate.j:

sorry it's not a good pic, but you get the idea
Nice T4 vwtyp2 ;)
okay, it is an old thread I know, but my questions fits in well here and I don't have to start a new one....
What load index/ratings do none OEM T4 rims need to be street legal (my wife likes it street legal)? I just have a floor and backseat in the car at the moment...
Can't remember exactly but if you look at the placard inside the drivers door frame it has the axle loads....wheels have to exceed half of the axle load. To my knowledge, only Speedy Wheels sell rated alloys for the T4.
wow. thanks for all that input seano. it kinda sucks being stuck with steelies or speedy wheels. i would love to run some OEM Audis 5 spoke... :(
actually:
Do I need uprated wheels and tyres or just uprated tyres????
(Sorry for the n00b question, I just can't find any reliable information or sth that confirms just the need of uprated tyres!)
