ATTENTION
/// We recommend the 8” wheel and a tyre size of 225/40 R18 for Golfs (and narrower body cars such as A3, Leon, Jetta etc) to maintain wheel arch clearance (VWR600001).
/// For Scirocco, TT, Beetle (the wider bodied cars) the 9” rims with tyre size of 235/40 R18 fit perfectly with the greater clearance that these cars allow (VWR600004).
Few upgrades make more difference to your car’s appearance and dynamics than its wheels.
The VWR ‘Cup Edition’ 18” Light Alloy Wheel is a rim developed for road, race and track use, giving the confidence of perfect dimensions and geometry for your car.
This is the exact same wheel as is used on all of our Volkswagen Racing Cup cars for the past decade – and there is no greater testimony to their performance than that.
The VWR ‘Cup Edition’ 18" rim is a heat treated lightweight alloy wheel. A lighter-weight wheel helps the dynamics of ride, handling and responses through reducing the all-important unsprung weight. Yet at the same time, nothing is more important than the strength, safety and reliability of your car’s wheels. The VWR ‘Cup Edition’ Alloy Wheel’s motorsport pedigree more than proves that it more than meet these challenges.
