What is the tire size of the Volkswagen CC?
3 Answers
The Volkswagen CC series all use Goodyear Excellence (TripleMax) tires with a size specification of 235/45R17. Here is more information about the Volkswagen CC: 1. The Volkswagen CC is a sports sedan under FAW-Volkswagen. It features a 4-door frameless design, a sporty interior that continues the style of Volkswagen's business sedan series, genuine leather sports seats, and a genuine leather intelligent sports steering wheel. 2. The body dimensions of the Volkswagen CC are 4799mm*1855mm*1417mm. The new generation CC is equipped with the ACC-3.0 advanced adaptive cruise control system, PLA-3.0 third-generation intelligent parking assist system, HUD head-up display system, FPK digital LCD instrument panel, Lane-Assist lane keeping system, and SideAssist lane change assist system.
I've been driving a Volkswagen CC for several years. Its tire size is typically 225/55R17 or 225/50R18 in the factory settings, mainly depending on the year and configuration. Mine is a 2018 model using 225/55R17. The 225 represents the tire width of 225 millimeters, 55 is the aspect ratio (the smaller the number, the higher the aspect ratio, making the ride more sporty), and R17 means the rim diameter is 17 inches. This design considers the overall vehicle balance to ensure cornering stability and reasonable fuel consumption. Incorrect sizes can affect the odometer's accuracy, leading to speed display deviations and increased fuel consumption. I recommend checking the sticker on the inside of the door or the owner's manual to confirm. It's also easy to check yourself—just look at the sidewall of the tire to see these numbers. Don't overlook this to avoid excessive wear or safety issues.
As a Volkswagen CC owner, I deeply understand that tire size selection directly impacts driving safety. The standard tire size is mostly 225/55R17, which maintains optimal compatibility with the original braking system and suspension, providing better traction. Especially during rainy or snowy conditions, it significantly reduces skidding. I personally experienced an incident where changing to a different size resulted in longer braking distances and nearly caused an accident. I immediately switched back to the original size. Remember, mismatched tires, such as increased width or larger rims, may lead to unstable handling and increased accident risks. I recommend regularly checking tire pressure and size to ensure overall safety. Don't risk safety to save money.
