I have a 2010 R which has the puncture repair kit in the boot instead of a spare wheel. I have 18" rims on the Roc and am looking at purchasing a space saver spare as I have no faith in the goop!
Does anyone have 18" rims and a space saver spare, if so what size is the spare? I asked VW dealership but they were useless & couldn't tell me what size I need!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Re: Space saver wheel size on R
The differing wheel diameters have similar rolling radii due to the different tyre profiles so the space saver for all the wheel.options will be the the same size. 18" IIRC
From another thread on the subject, the part number quoted is 1KO601027B.
Obviously check from a 2nd source before buying.

Thanks for the info Cuprabob. Unfortunately the auction has ended, I'm sure I'll find another one.
