http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tego ry=66483

I just swapped out to my 18" winter wheels today. My summer wheels are
OEM 17" and I like the look of the bigger wheel.

Any other suggestions as to TT wheels on the more conservative side in
the 19" range?

Thanks

If these are truly A8 wheels, then they have a 5x112 bolt pattern. Your TT
has 5x100 bolt pattern, so no go.

Cheers,

Pete

18" winter tires? Let me guess, you don't do a lot of driving in the snow?
Unless you live in Florida, Arizona or similar, tires like that is madness
in the winter.

Don't understand the confusion here???

My car came with 225/45-17. Seventeen inch diameter SUMMER tires. They
suck in the snow.

I bought Michelin Pilot Alpin tires which are 225/40-18 and a set of
cheap discontinued wheels from tire rack.

The Alpin tires kick ass in the snow. I drive in snow quite a bit thank
you. I like the look of a larger tire on a car as do most other people.

Got it?
