Does the load rating needs to be at least 105 front and 107 back?

If you are not pulling trailer it is not necessary for winter setup.

An

99% sure there is no way a 17” will work on an AWD. Agree with Jimmy. 18” is close. I’m going to order my set today and do a test fit some time this week to see just how close it is.

EDIT: Added pics of the actual tires to the first post.

After you fitted the 18s, are you confident the 17s won't fit? I also have some 17 inch snow tires from my old A4.

Not a chance with 17s. 18s have very tight clearance between the caliper and wheel weights.

Thanks for the update! Found a buyer for my old rims, $400!

Newbie tire/wheel question. As the Pro rwd has staggered size tires can you put matching size tires on without purchasing new wheels or will the larger/smaller size not fit. I ask as being able to rotate tires would be nice for tire life.

Are you still offering these tire/wheel packages? Are you able to source Nokian WR G4 tires?

I am! And I can get those Nokians at a slight discount - just checked 235/60R18 (for example) and that is available to me, I'd just need to contact my supplier for a firm price. I can get a detailed quote in whatever size you'd like - PM me.

EDIT: My supplier apparently can only get the Nokian Nordman 7 right now in 235/60-18. Nothing else for Nokians. Bummer.. but I will keep checking if anything changes.

Excellent choice of all-weather tires

Hooked up another member yesterday with some 18" snow wheels and installed 2 rear Alenzas on their Moonstone '21 Thank you!

Very nice Alutec wheel.

Btw, in that picture, you had a red "Driver's Side" sticker. Are those Bridgestone snow tires directional?

They actually were directional! I checked the tread and sidewall since I didn't think they were. Though the tread didn't seem to be, there were slight angles in it that would cause it to be directional. They are the Blizzak DM-V2.

Thanks for the info. My son has those Bridgestone snow tires on his MK7 GTI. He quite likes them, it's very grippy and hard to squeal the front tires.

It's a bit too far from SE US tho. But I'll keep you in mind. It seems to be a good setup for AT tires also. We don't get snow in the south, but it would make good use for a set of AT tires. I cannot find any AT tire fit both front and rear size of my 19" OE wheels.

Do your snow tire packages include TPMS sensors?

The ID.4 doesn't utilize TPMS sensors, but for other vehicles I can add sensors for $50 each, including programming to the vehicle.

Hi Mr. @fiehlsport. I tried to send you a direct message but the system wouldn't allow it because I'm a new user. Could you DM me? I wanted to see how far away you are from Pittsburgh. Thanks!
