Title: Confused
Post by: J12spk on September 14, 2013, 10:09:59 am

I have a 2005 mk5 tdi sport (105) and I believe that it came with 18" wheels as standard due to the fact that the space saver is a 18" and also inside the fuel cap area it has the gen vw info sticker with the psi ratings for my 18" wheels! I always thought that the r32 18"s were reps!

Anyone shed any light on this???????

It also comes with footwell lighting, 6 speed, cruise control, folding elec mirrors and puddle lights!

Mine came with 16s, no cruise control or puddle lights.

They are called "hockenheim"

So it would have come with 18" hockenheim not 18" 32's?

Theres virtually no way it came with 18s from the factory.. i dont think they were even an option!

You can go to the dealers and they can tell you which wheels your car left the factory with if you really wanna know

Not too fussed what wheels it came with, just trying to understand why there are 2 major things that point to the fact that this car has 18" wheels!

Maybe they were optional extras from the beginning

I know. That could have been changed at some point.
