The Official Mk1 Tiguan Wheel Thread

[aussietig]

Tyres are 255/35/20. I put the H&R springs onto stock struts and the ride is quite firm, I am still getting used to it but the car looks so much better!!

Dubs ... you do realise that your stock struts won't last very long with the aftermarket springs?

Even with 19" wheels and say a 245/45R19 tyre, I'm still a bit paranoid about the firm ride when Mrs & kids are in the car.

Fortunately, when VW decided to delete the Dynaudio option, I put that money instead on the ACC.

Hopefully, the comfort setting will stop the complaining inside the car.


BTW, gave the standard speakers on the Tig a real workout at the motor show. Pretty happy with the quality of the sound!

I looked for a while at rims to find some that looked good and also were available in the correct size, offset and bolt pattern, there are definitely lots of ugly chrome styles out there!!

Yep ... definitely not much to choose from.

Don't know who the hell set the rule that SUV/4x4 wheels only come in a bling bling finish.

If only they could somehow get them to spin by themselves when stationary or from the centre cap, spear head would be released on a press of a button.

Now that would go well with my furry dice!
