Volkswagen Tiguan Trendline version uses 215/65R16 tires for both front and rear, while the Flagship version adopts 235/55R17. The Volkswagen Tiguan offers 4 trim levels with 7 models, equipped with Volkswagen's 1.8TSI and 2.0TSI engines to ensure excellent power performance. It is paired with a 6-speed manual transmission and a 6-speed automatic transmission, allowing the car's power performance to be better utilized while making the vehicle's emissions more environmentally friendly. The Volkswagen Tiguan is a domestically produced SUV model in China, with body dimensions of 4506mm in length, 1809mm in width, and 1685mm in height.
My family's Tiguan uses 235/55 R17 tires, but the tire sizes do vary across different model years and trim levels. The base version might come with 215/65 R16, while higher trims or sport editions could use 235/50 R18. You need to pay special attention to the factory specifications when replacing tires, because incorrect sizing can affect the suspension system and ABS operation. I once accidentally got the wrong size, and it caused noticeable steering wheel vibration at highway speeds. I recommend checking the label on the door frame or the vehicle manual—they always print the exact size there. Also, a heads-up: there's quite a price difference between different tire sizes; an 18-inch one can cost 400-500 yuan more per tire. If you're on a budget, you might consider going with the base trim size.
