Hello guys,

 

Thinking about putting some 19"s on my Vrs as i prefer the look to 18s.

 

Just wonder if there will be a TPS issue? I don't know anything about these things. Will be going for some Audi alloys.

There won't be an issue as the sensing is done on the car and not the wheel. You'll just need to do a reset and everything will be fine.

Thanks very much for this info!

Aye, ABS sensor is used.  It works on the grounds that any difference in rotational speed of the wheel can be attributed to a sudden change in the tyre pressure, when compared the values which were previously stored.

So that being said, would putting 19s on cause any problems?

No.  As @john999boy has stated above, just do a TPMS reset.

Don't forget to order the baseball cap which will need to be placed at a jaunty angle! 

Depending on which Audi alloys they are you may need spigot rings to reduce from 66.5mm to 57.1mm centre bore though.

Good point, the ones i want seem to come in many different fitments, so i'll be wary of this! That is unless i can bag a set of 19" Xtremes, but they seem super rare!
