SteNova Posted July 9, 2006 Report Share Posted July 9, 2006 i'd just be checking the date stamp on the wheels... if they are the same age as the car then i'd be agreeing it came with them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NunchukHamster Posted July 9, 2006 Report Share Posted July 9, 2006 I've got a feeling the standard wheels were 15's, and that 16's were an optional upgrade. I should imagine that a VW dealer should be able to find out from their records. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pugboy Posted July 9, 2006 Report Share Posted July 9, 2006 I dont think a dealer fit option when new is even worth declaring to the insurer - especially not if they up your premium for it. I presume you mean the 5 twin spoked alloys as fitted to the Golf GTI? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meriafel Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 We have a 98 Tdi Sport Estate that came with 16" alloys from the factory but I feel sure that they were an optional upgrade even on the Sport model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
