Mine were 235/55R19 front, 255/50R19 rear stock.

 

OK so new question. I was able to find these in 20x8.5. since in have a Pro S with 20" wheels that are practically brand new (I have 500 miles on the car) I should be able to just take off the OEM tires and just put them on right? would save me a whole bunch

 

I do believe that size in determined by the diameter of the hole or the tire or the height of the wheel. In otherwords, a 19 in tire will not fit on a twenty inch wheel, and a 20 in tire will not work with a 19 in tire. Tire and wheel have to be matched.

 

Good choice of wheels. Rotiform is one of the best aftermarket wheels.

I would go with 235/55R19 sqr. setup, and call it a day. For quicker and more accurate steering response, I wouldn't go any wider front tires than the O.E. tire size.

 

for the Rotiform you can order lug type in BALL or CONICAL. Are the OEM Lug bolts for VW a Ball or Conical? If its Ball then I have to order new bolts because i found a really good deal on the conical ones.

 

Kyle did a range test in an ID.4 with lowering springs. I would suggest you watch that before making a purchase. The idea of the test was to see if lowering the car would help the max range or not. He called it a draw when compared to the car with the stock springs, but my take on his numbers was that lowering the car actually hurt range just a bit . . . . and Kyle didn't care for the bumpy ride either

But, you gotta make sacrifices to look . . . . COOL

Also, keep in mind that one day . . . . you're gonna be selling or trading in this car and the hit in resale value will be lots more than the cost of installing lowering springs

 

I considered lowering my 2013 allroad after seeing one so-lowered at a show. It did look ..... COOL

However then the more practical side of my brain considered one of the appeals of the allroad was some add'l road clearance (8.1") for light off-road and Winter driving. And also your cited cost-benefit-resale consideration. Same goes for the ID.4 imho, especially if not local very smooth roads.

 

I'm also looking to lower the ID4 on H&R springs

VW wheel bolts are ball. You can always buy conical wheel bolts. You'll most likely also need to get hubcentric rings. Go with plastic so they don't seize onto your hub or wheel.

oof what. i literally just ordered 57.1 > 72.6 center bore rings on amazon right before you said this. is it really a bad idea to use aluminum? I cancelled them right away.

 

You can use either aluminum or plastic hub-centric rings. Apply a generous amount of anti-seize compound on the hub flange to prevent hub-centric rings from seizing onto the hub. Also, apply a generous amount of the anti-seize compound on the back of the wheel mounting contact face for easy dismounting.

What he said.


I've used both in the past, with anti seize. Sometimes stuff happens and the aluminum ones are less forgiving than plastic. And worst case, you break the plastic one, it's cheaper to replace.
