The size on the placard inside the driver's door jamb is the one your car left the factory with. Match that, not this table, if they differ; a previous owner may have changed wheels.

Worth knowing about the 2022 Tiguan
- Wipers. The front arms use a narrow push-button fitting rather than a hook, and the rear blade is a model-specific part, so choose blades listed for the Tiguan.
- Tire chains. The manual permits chains or cables, on the drive wheels only, fitted to the standard tire size. Chains for this size on Amazon →
- Tires. The manual allows snow chains on the front wheels only: fine-mesh chains up to 13.5 mm on 215/65R17 tires on 6.5x17 wheels (9 mm on 7x17 wheels) and tread-surface chains only on 235/55R18 tires.
- Torque. Tighten lug nuts to 103 ft-lbs in a star pattern with a torque wrench, and re-check after the first 50 miles. This figure is from the owner's manual; an impact gun will overshoot it.
- Wheels. The wheels are held by M14 x 1.5 wheel bolts that thread into the hub rather than by nuts, and the manual gives one torque for steel and alloy wheels.
- Roof load. The 165 lb roof limit is the dynamic figure for driving and includes the rack itself. It is not a limit for a rooftop tent when parked; the manual gives no static figure.
- Dimensions. The 2022 manual's length and height figures differ from the 2023 book and are left out.
- Fuel. All-wheel-drive models hold 16.4 gallons.
