Detailed tire and wheel breakdown for the 2018 Volkswagen Amarok

Tire geometry — 255/50R20

The 255/50R20 fitted to the 2018 Volkswagen Amarok has a section width of 255mm and an aspect ratio of 50%, mounted on a 20-inch rim. That gives a sidewall height of 127.5mm (5.02") and an overall outside diameter of 763.0mm (30.04"). At highway speed this tire completes roughly 417 revolutions per kilometre, which is what your speedometer and odometer are calibrated against.

Plus-sizing window

If you want to upsize wheels on the 2018 Volkswagen Amarok while keeping the speedometer accurate, target a 265/43R21 (plus-one). For a softer ride or winter setup, a 245/57R19 (minus-one) keeps the overall diameter within Âą3% of stock, which is the industry tolerance for ABS and stability control to stay calibrated.

Wheel fitment specs

The 2018 Volkswagen Amarok uses a 5x120 bolt pattern with a 65.1mm hub bore. Safe rim width range for the OEM tire is 7.5J – 8.5J, and offsets in the ET38 – ET48 window will clear suspension and fender without rubbing on most setups.

Tire pressure guidance

Manufacturer-recommended cold tire pressure for the 2018 Volkswagen Amarok is printed on the driver-side door jamb sticker — always defer to that value, not to the maximum pressure printed on the tire sidewall. Check pressure monthly and before long trips; under-inflation by 20% can reduce tread life by 25%.
