Difference
A 125/70R17 spare size is within the accepted tolerance range for temporary use with all OEM tire diameters for this Volkswagen generation.
The overall tire height (not the wheel size) is the consideration for the spare tire fitment. The 17" spare wheel is then chosen for proper fitment and not interfere with the brake or suspension system. This is regardless of the OEM wheel option that came on the vehicle.
Frequently Asked Questions
There is more than one year range choice for my Golf, which one is right for me? In 1992 the older MK2 chassis and the new MK3 where both sold. Also in 1999 the MK3 and the newer MK4 were sold together. The VR6 has different specs than other models. You'll need to choose the specific year range and model for your vehicle.
