I'd like to know if it is viable to replace my Karoq 2.0 TDI 150 AWD Edition

wheels with wheels from the Kodiak that have 235/55ZR/18 tyres....?

Ideally finding someone along the way who'd appreciate  my 19"wheels fitted with 225/45ZR/19 ...?

 

I'm not even sure if these 18" wheels are suitable for a 4x4...?

Probably.

 

I'm sure someone will be along in a minute with all the data from the Skoda brochures regarding wheels and tyres.

 

Plus all the web pages that let you compare wheel diameter, width, offset (ET), PCD, ad infinitum.

 

(I just cant be arsed)

 

The humongous VAG family of vehicles provides endless opportunities to swap parts.

Those Kodiak tyres are a bit wider and higher profile than OEM Karoq size.  225/50x18 are standard fitment.

235/55R18 are too big for the Karoq 4x4, because compared to 225/50R18 it raises the gearing by about 4.9%.

 

However, you could use the 7Jx18 ET43 Kodiaq rims instead of the 7Jx18 ET45 Karoq rims, and change to 225/50R18 which is the correct tyre size for the Karoq 4x4.

 

The ET43 offset will push the centre of the tyre 2mm further out in the wheelarch compared to the standard ET45 offset. So that's only a very small difference.

 

Your 8Jx19 ET45 Karoq rims with 225/45R19 tyres could be sold to a Karoq 4x4 owner, or a Karoq 2WD owner is they don't mind the higher sidewall height and higher gearing.

 

225/45R19 raises the gearing by about 3.4% compared to 225/40R19, and increases the radius of the tyre by 11.25mm.

Carlton, thank you for your valued advice, which I'm still applying much thought to  !

 

225/50R18 you mention, which throws me askew slightly....not sure why, probably because I'm  sure that 225/45ZR19 is the standard (but unpopular) tyre  that comes with the 4x4 TDI Edition...?7

 

It's years since I've sold/traded used car parts, I guess I'd  be best off phoning Dealership partspeople    and  of course asking amongst these pages......?

 

 

 

So folks, if you are interested in assisting,,

I mentioned 225/50R18 because that would be for the 18" Kodiaq rims (if you've purchased a set or are going to purchase a set), ie. remove the 235/55R18 Kodiaq tyres from the 18" Kodiaq rims and fit new 225/50R18 tyres...leaving you to sell the 235/55R18 tyres.
