Default Does the A3 use the same Wheels as the TT?
Currently have a TT - thinking of moving that one to Arizona and getting an A3 for Chicago - BUT - I'd like to use my winter wheels/tires on the TT on the A3 - thoughts?

Default No...
Different bolt pattern (TT=5x100, A3=5x112) and offset (TT=35mm, A3=56mm)

Default New Dimensions thinks so, though!
Every time I've gone there they've given me completely incorrect advice.

Default They changed hands a while ago, and have been going downhill rapidly
according to my VW driving friends.

Default 8L (A3) and 8N (TT) yes
8P (A3) and 8N (TT) no.

8L = 5x100
8P = 5x112
8N = 5x100

Default yes you use the same size tires as a TT does.
225/45R17
225/40R18
205/50R17
205/55R16

will all work if the wheels clear your brakes.

Ok. Who thinks the open sky (when open) is excessively noisy?
