Volkswagen Golf R Tyres

The Volkswagen Golf R is a more performance oriented version of the Golf. It is available as a hatchback and an estate across different generations. Volkswagen Golf R tyres can give good road contact, while still being agile and responsive. Dependable braking and wet grip will make commuting and longer trips on the motorway safer, more convenient, and less stressful. For road driving in the British climate, when you need precise steering, more responsive tyres can help. Some tyres can also provide a more comfortable ride and reduce road noise and improve fuel efficiency.

Depending on the generation, body style, and other factors, different models of the Volkswagen Golf R will have different requirements for tyre size, so there is no single size that fits all. The correct Volkswagen Golf R tyres have to match the specification of the tyre size to support optimal performance of the Golf R.

The existing tyre sidewall, vehicle handbook or registration details confirm the fitment. For convenience, you can book fixtures for your chosen Volkswagen Golf R tyres using Tyres.co.uk. You can compare performance against price and brand, then choose a convenient local fitment for your chosen specification.

5.00/5
I have had excellent performance with these tyres in all kinds of weather. The grip is excellent and the ride quality of my E89 Z4 improved noticeably as soon as I changed from the original run flats.

5.00/5
The tyres are excellent. However, the price has increased quite a lot. A nail went through the tread within a week. I will still choose Tyres.co.uk in the future.

Goodyear Eagle F1 (Asymmetric 5)
Tyre review for Goodyear Eagle F1 (Asymmetric 5) 225/50R17
5.00/5
I feel great. The wear seems to be even and they have plenty of tread remaining. I was a little worried about having a hybrid because the batteries make it a little heavier.

Your Volkswagen Golf R Tyre Questions Answered

Tyres.co.uk has other options available for the original equipment (OE) Volkswagen Golf R tyres. Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 is one of those options if your vehicle has 19-inch wheels. However, before placing an order, be sure to check your exact size, load index, speed rating and the XL rating.

The information about the tyres is usually located behind the fuel cap, however, on some Golf R models this is located on the driver's side door. Be sure to check that spot and the sidewall of the tyres as well as the registration of the vehicle. There will be some variation in factory wheels and tyres.

Although it is not a requirement to replace all four tyres, it is highly recommended, due to the 4MOTION system of all Golf R models, that all four are the same as far as construction, size, rolling circumference and tread design. Replace a full axle pair whenever a matched pair is needed. In accordance with UK safety guidance, if you only replace two tyres, place them on the rear axle.
