Unfortunately, just the stock Michelin A/S 255-width ones.
Volkswagen Phaeton parts reviews
I had to top off once and used Castrol Syntec, which is about $3.50 where I live.

I used Duplicolor Caliper paint. Follow the instructions. There is more info online about painting calipers than I wanted to read. But I did read a lot of it.
Everything appears to fit well. The ride is smooth with the 275 40ZR 19 105 Load Pirelli P-Zero Rosso tires. These are 3-season tires - turn-in is sharper and they are fun on highway on-ramps. The car is more "tossable" and fun to drive
Just installed new tires on our Phaeton. The old Michelins were actually dangerous. For reference, I'm not talking about driving through giant puddles at high speed; every time this happened we were on the freeway. So -- I researched everything out there and settled on the Michelin® Pilot Sport A/S (255/45R18). All I can say is... WOW!!! What a huge difference in performance; the car turns in much better and grips like crazy. These tires should be standard on this car! This tire seems to improve on the factory tire in every area of performance, and is supposed to be superb in the wet as well.
Jack on my visit the battery was also replaced. Part# 000-915-105-CE. They also replaced two modules that were causing a drain on the battery.
The VW service called yesterday (I took my car in that morning) and stated the battery (driver side) was bad, and was replaced ($347, if not in warranty). Other battery OK.
As much as I love to use Mobil One, I am going to stick with Castrol because VW dealership won't give me any credit for the Castrol in exchange for the Mobil one.
Hi, the Autobarn in Evanston has been great. And while the new windshield's been installed now, it is quite clear that it was not replaced with the infra-red glass.
