It took VW about 6 months to eventually correct their marketing stuff to reflect that 19" wheels do not in fact get the advertised 235 tyres (GTI/GTD). Has anyone been back for some compensation yet??
How would you get compensation for a missing 1cm of tyre width??? Seriously… glad I don't work in sales, there'd be a lot of people walking out with flat noses!!!

Looking on the R forum there seems to be the same issues with the VW press literature.
A multi million pounds business can't get some very basic stuff right - the modern thing of employing people with degrees who sit there playing on electronic toys all day at work instead of paying someone with a bit of common sense who actually gives a sh!t about what they're doing…
