    No sensors in the wheels. It's all done with electrickery off the ABS system. Just looks at speed sensors on each axle and works out if one wheel starts rotating more than others (i.e. is getting smaller/going flat).

    Edit - zoomed in and looks like a 255/55/18 tyre. What rim width and offset do you think that is? Also what level of drop?
    Welcome.. I come across a fair few Tigs in my Golf travels and I try to share those that tigger73 has not previously put up.

    It's definitely taking the wheel thing in the opposite direction.

    Jealousy is the US forums discussing the fact there is a "GTI engined" Tig for the ROW. And in the future probably the R..

    That's a very good point. It's understandable why the aftermarket parts scene for this car is so small. If it wasn't for the engine, I probably wouldn't have even considered purchasing it.

    100% agreed. Don't really understand why - they have a bucket load of models even before options/colors but they all come with the same engine ~135kW. They all use the 8 speed auto box so I suspect that plays a part.

    Without the the engine option it's just a solid SUV, but with it, it's the go-to for anyone who wants a bit of squirt pre-mod in that price range.

    Love the CH-Rs on the Tiguan - solid fill.

    Might need more convincing on the smoked front headlight and exhaust treatment though.

    Hi all - I have a 162 Highline (no R-line pack) and thinking about fitting the R-line 20inch wheels. Does anyone have any experience with this? I'm particularly interested if and how the ride quality is compromised given the standard Highline doesn't have the Adaptive Suspension that comes with the R-line pack. Any thoughts?
