Michelin don't have any 215/65/17R tyres in stock. When I contacted them I was told they are not being imported. I got onto Isaac Bober, Practical Motoring. He obviously knows the right people! He found out that VW actually have a stock of the OEM tyre and Michelin have them on order. That is heaps better than I could find out. VW told me to buy Pirelli instead. Not happening.........

The reason I enquired was because I am thinking of buying a tyre so that I have a full size spare. It will fit as the floor of the boot has two levels.
