I did get new wheels and tires and couldn\u2019t be happier. The 205/55s are a better choice for general use, being much quieter overall and considerably less harsh on city streets, while keeping very solid highway performance.

Pros: quieter, less harsh

I test drove all 3 tire size when shopping the Arteon, don't be fooled, size does matter. As expected, 18 inch has the best ride and the 20 the worst. It was quite noticeable even on the short drive.

Pros: 18 inch best ride
Cons: 20 inch worst ride

Apart from the stock all-season tires being abysmally horrid in the winter (I have another set of wheels with summer-only tires for warm weather), I haven't had any issues with my car and using the go-pedal.

Pros: no issues using go-pedal
Cons: horrid in the winter

I get 37mpg city in my tdi, and the best mileage I ever got on my rabbit (2.5 mkv) was 32mpg with 15's and ultra low rolling resistance tires.

Pros: stellar mileage

I've had several cars of the $150 variety. The best was a 1990 VW Fox that I bought for $150 from the original owner. I then proceeded to drive it about 150K before I spent another cent on it besides oil tires and gas.

Pros: drove 150K miles
Mileage: 150000 km

Not in my experience. I run 32/32 and my tires now have 35k on them, and are good for another 5k or so more no problemo. Wear is about as even as I've ever seen for a tire this far into its useful life. I messed around with a lot of different pressures before settling on this combo, and it's what works best for me.. and definitely no adverse wear issues.

Pros: even wear, long life
Cons: requires pressure experimentation
Mileage: 56327 km

My last vw, jetta, the rears always got scalloped eventually, even with rotations...now on the CC, just had the tires again rotated with the 30k service and the noise from the front is annoying as hell...that droning reverbish kind of sound.

Cons: noise from the front
Mileage: 30000 km
