For those with the V6 Highline Sports Pack, what size tyres are actually fitted to the vehicle? The brochure, both on line and physical, states that the Sports Package includes Vicenza 18" rims with 235/45R18, when the standard wheels/tyre package is 235/40R18. I know it must be wrong and the Sports Package tyres must be 235/40R18 but I just want to check. Also, I am not a big fan of the Vicenzas and like the standard Kansas 18" better or even the optional Veracruz 18", has anyone optioned the Veracruz 18"s?

That is one thing I don't want to have to have an issue with and that is cleaning them as they look complicated to clean. I am looking to change them to something simple with less spokes so as to be able to get in between the spokes and behind.
I should pick up my B7 V6 4motion Wagon Candy White Sports Pack with RNS510 Satnav and auto tailgate in about 2 weeks. I am seriously thinking of getting the stock 18" Kansas rims or the 18" Veracruz rims, or maybe some after market jobbies.

One of these days we should have a candy wagon convention...
Maybe the week after next we should have a Sydney Passat Patch meeting at thornleigh maccas or something... (half of the sydney passat types seem to be northside) so before you pick her up you see Rickers white sports with Kansas, next to my White sports Vicenzas...
I personally prefer factory mags (issue or upsize factory option) over aftermarket (but that is strictly IMHO)
Oh and Booba, hope all your bits fit on MY13

That might be a good idea.
I do too, and that is why I am looking mainly at the Kansas or the Veracruz options, but I'd love to see them in the flesh on a Candy White V6 wagon.I personally prefer factory mags (issue or upsize factory option) over aftermarket (but that is strictly IMHO)

I didn't think that my13 rollover was until around november, golf and others are usually around mid year but i always thought passat was different.

Looks like the 19" Sagitta wheels from the CC accessory catalogue could be the go as an alternative.
