Volkswagen Touran wheel fitment — Ii 1T
Overview
The Volkswagen Touran (Typ 1T) is a compact multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) manufactured by German automaker Volkswagen since 2003. It fills a gap in Volkswagen's model lineup between the Volkswagen Golf and its larger counterpart, the Volkswagen Sharan. The first generation of the Touran was based on the PQ35 platform, sharing many components with the Golf Mk5. Introduced in December 2002, it went into production shortly after and sales commenced in 2003. It is known for its electro-mechanical steering system, which varies the weight of the steering depending on road speed, improving overall efficiency. The Touran was also the first vehicle to use Volkswagen's 2.0 TDI engine.
Volkswagen Touran wheel fitment
Volkswagen Touran wheel fitment for the Volkswagen Touran (Ii) 1T (2003–2015): the factory PCD, centre bore and bolt spec, then the aftermarket width and offset window we fit to.
| Bolt pattern (PCD) | 5x112 |
| Centre bore | 57.1 mm |
| Bolt / thread | M14x1.5 (bolts) |
| Wheel-bolt torque | 120 Nm |

Aftermarket wheel sizes — read per position:
| Position | Width | Offset |
|---|---|---|
| Front | 6.5J–8.5J | ET35–ET52 |
As a rule, each extra 1J of width wants roughly +8–10 ET to keep the wheel tucked. The exact offset and any spacer are confirmed by the fit-check.
UK popularity & demand
Based on DfT VEH0124 vehicle-parc data (2025), there are approximately 63,630 Volkswagen Touran on UK roads, placing it in the top 5% of car models by volume across our fitment database.
