Question Is this normal? 16" spare tire? - 04-01-2007, 01:26 AM

As you know, I've just recently bought a '06 VW Jetta 2.0 TFSI.

All is good and the acceleration is marvelous.

While I was washing my car, I opened up my trunk to see where my emergency kits were.

I found that the emergency kit was to be found right where the spare tire is. But here's the situation. I see a 16" wheel as a spare tire. Now, my TFSI came mounted with four 7.5J 17" Alloy wheels (225/45R17). As a normal customer, I would expect to see a 17" wheel of the same spec (225/45R17) for a spare tire but NOT.

Is this normal or have I been cheated?
