Volkswagen Toureg wheel fitment — Touareg Iii CR
Volkswagen Toureg wheel fitment
Volkswagen Toureg wheel fitment comes down to two things: the factory hub spec, and how far the aftermarket width and offset can move from it. Both are here for the Volkswagen Touareg (Iii) CR (2002–2026).
| Bolt pattern (PCD) | 5x112 |
| Centre bore | 66.6 mm |
| Bolt / thread | M14x1.5 (bolts) |
| Wheel-bolt torque | 120 Nm |
| Seat type | radius |
| Factory setup | square |
| TPMS | indirect |
Aftermarket wheel sizes — read per position:
| Position | Width | Offset |
|---|---|---|
| Front | 8J–10.5J | ET10–ET35 |
Go wider and the offset has to rise with it, about 8 to 10 ET per extra 1J, or the wheel pokes past the arch. The fit-check settles the exact offset and any spacer.
Overview
The Volkswagen Touareg (III) CR is a mid-size luxury crossover SUV produced by Volkswagen from 2018 until March 2026. Built on the MLB Evo platform shared with high-end models like the Porsche Cayenne, Audi Q7, and Bentley Bentayga, it represents a significant technological leap over its predecessors. The third generation introduced advanced driver assistance systems, an optional Innovision Cockpit featuring a large touchscreen display, and a plug-in hybrid variant (Touareg R). It was not offered in North America due to the introduction of the larger Volkswagen Atlas.
