I'm running 205 50 17 on oem vw Gavia 17x6.5 et 46 for Winter and 225 45 17 on oem vw Valencia 17x7.5 et 51 for Summer. These are the recommended oem sizes.
Pros: recommended oem sizes
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Punctures that didn't go deep in the tread usually would be fine. Looks llike they sprayed water on it and there are no air bubbles indicating air leaking.
Pros: no air leaking
Vehicle:
Porsche
These tires were just taken off a two-week old 2022 Volkswagen GTI. The tires were driven lightly during break-in period before dismounting with only 315 miles on them. They are in as-new condition.
Pros: as-new condition
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 507 km
Overall the I found the GTI was very impressive at a track that doesn't cater to FWD and with terrible 560tw all seasons.
Pros: very impressive
Cons: terrible all seasons
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
I did get new wheels and tires and couldn\u2019t be happier. The 205/55s are a better choice for general use, being much quieter overall and considerably less harsh on city streets, while keeping very solid highway performance.
Pros: quieter, less harsh
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
I think the single largest shortcoming is the tires. After that, probably the suspension. After I owned it for about 6 months I noticed that driving over potholes and speedbumps was not nearly as good as I was expecting out of a lifted car.
Cons: driving over potholes not good
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
The ride on 20" are quite harsh when compared to all other smaller wheels sizes with the same tires. I got 20" for both summer and winter, rosario ones, obviously with different tires and the winter tires with have a softer widewall and generally more rubber not being a low profile tires rides much better than the summer tires.
Pros: winter tires ride better
Cons: 20" ride quite harsh
Vehicle:
Volkswagen

Had an alignment done at a Porsche dealer here in TX, gave them a printout of the specs a shop in CA had aligned it to. Come to find out they were way off and I ended up destroying the inside edge of my front track tires.
Cons: destroyed inside tire edge
