I know tyres and wheels are a personal choice but Im really torn on what to do.
Just borught a b6 Passat with these wheels on (see photo). They are 235/45/18. Given that the car is black with dark tinted windows, they are not really to my taste so was looking probably for original VW wheels, Macau or scirocco turbine.
At the moment the front wheels have two new Pirelli Winter Sottozero which Im coming to hate. At less than 30mph they are very loud and 80mph+ there is vibration (I know this could possibly be other things).
Initially I was going to sell these wheels as and get another set of 18s with tyres for an easy swap. Then someone suggested keeping the tyres for winter as they are not cheap and very useful. On top of that someone then suggested switching to 17s for a better ride.
Given that this is my first Passat, was just after some advice or suggestion from people with better knowledge fo these cars than my self.
