215/40/17 winter tyres ???
« on: August 24, 2013, 06:36:22 pm »
I have a set of Nokian 215/40/17 winter tyres off our last car.

I have got them up for sale , but I am wondering whether just to mount them on some 17" rims for winter.

Will they look too small ?

It's about a 5% difference so your speedo may be slightly out.

I think the OEM 17" fitment is 225/45/17 on the golf.

Im sure someone may correct me if wrong.  :signLOL:
