Re: Stock wheel size

[Mark Peele <type53@yahoo.com>]

I saw for the first time the 5.5" version of the
"stock" mk1 Scirocco wheel earlier this year. I think
it was used on later Rabbit Convertibles and A1
Jettas.  I have never seen one on a Scirocco S. I have
owned 3 Scirocco S models, and they all came with the
13X5" wheel.
