Summer complete wheel sets for VW Golf 8

The Volkswagen Golf 8 (CD1) is the latest generation of the classic on the MQB-evo platform and combines state-of-the-art assistance systems with sporty driving dynamics. With efficient TSI/eTSI and TDI engines, hybrid variants (GTE), the sporty GTI/GTD line, and the powerful Golf 8 R 4Motion, the Golf VIII requires technically precisely matched summer complete wheels.

To ensure maximum performance, stability, steering precision, and braking power in summer, rims and tires must be perfectly matched to the ET value, brake clearance, load capacity, and rolling circumference of the CD1 series.
Reifenshop Landshut exclusively supplies summer wheels that are 100% Golf 8 compatible.

🔧 Why the VW Golf 8 needs special summer complete wheels

1. Modern brake systems require tested brake clearance

Depending on the version, the Golf 8 has:

• Standard TSI/TDI brake systems

• larger GTI/GTD brake systems

• Golf R high-performance brake calipers
  → Summer rims must be tested for brake clearance.

2. MQB-evo reacts particularly sensitively to ET deviations

Incorrect ET values can cause:

• rubbing on wheel arch or strut

• imprecise steering behavior

• unstable driving dynamics
  → Exact offset is indispensable.

3. Rolling circumference crucial for hybrid & 4Motion models

Important for GTE & Golf R:

• identical circumference for front & rear axles

• stability during recuperation & all-wheel drive control
  → OEM rolling circumference must be precisely adhered to.

4. Summer tires must support the sporty design of the Golf VIII

Required properties:

• high lateral guidance

• strong wet grip

• short braking distances

• efficient mileage

5. Rim widths & tire cross-sections significantly influence performance

The Golf 8 reacts to:

• too wide sports tires (traction vs. consumption)

• too low sidewall height
  → Vehicle-specific, OEM-like combinations are optimal.
