How big of a tire do I need for a VW?
In the front of a VW you typically want to install the smallest possible tire to minimize tire interference when turning. On a 17-inch rim this is commonly a 205/40. In the rear, you want to maintain the stock overall diameter (OD) of 24.8” so that you do not alter the performance of your vehicle. This translates to a 215/45 17 or 225/45 17.
