Hello sirs,

I have a Scirocco R, 2016, that I am looking for new alloys for the summer. I have original ones, 18", for the winter.

Found some gorgeous second hand alloys, 20". The specs as follows:

8,5x20 ET 40 - 235/30/20
9,5x20 ET 45 - 255/30/20
Nav 66,6
Orginal Spacers 4x10mm

I talked to my local "tire-guy" that said that the 9,5 Inch rear tires can be a bit tight, and had to be tested. I read that some have the 9,5". It´s just such a hassle to try the tires on, since they are a few miles away from me.

Any input would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,



Niclas from Sweden

You'll need spigot rings as the Scirocco centre bore is 57.1mm and those are 66.1mm.

Great info Cuprabob!

I´m going to skip those rims, I would be more comfortable without spigot rings. But they would look good, I am sure....

Thank you for your assistance!!!
