    Does anybody own these rims?

    05-09-2012 03:03 PM #1
    Volkswagen part number: 5N0 601 027 B

    They are basic 16" steel rims I was thinking of using for winter tires. Just curious if anybody else is using them and what they think and if anybody has pictures of them on their Tiguan.

    Looking at VW part sights it looks like you can order them in silver or black.

    They're wheels. Not rimz. A rim is a part of the wheel. The wheel is the sum of all it's parts. Don't call them rims.

    Steelies are great for the winter and when you've got a wild hair and want to paint them bright pink or green... But I don't run them daily.
    ///KCH2O ”VDUBkill 2:0 – The path of 2.0T is beset on all sides by the injustice of the speedtrap and the Plague of the Prius drivers. But blessed is he who in the name of disparity overwhelmeth the exotic in the valley of the s-bends. And I shall strike down upon thee with great revs and furious acceleration those who attempt to obstruct or delay my overtaking and you will know my engine is turbocharged when I lay my powerband upon thee.”

    What are the dimensions of the winter tires you are running? Did you find a decent selection in that size? Thanks again.
