I'm looking for a set of winter wheels for my new-to-me Touareg. OE wheels are 20" Mallorys. Searches come up with conflicting info. Has anybody successfully gone this way?

I am running 17" VW wheeles from earlier Touareg on our 2011 VR6 Lux

I found really reasonably priced snows for this rim, went narrow and is a tank in deep slush on interstate at highway speed.

Thanks VWBob. What kind of tires did you go with? When you say 'narrow', what tire size did you get? I'm aware that snows should be narrow-er than 'summer' tires so they don't ride up on snow, but instead bite down through.....

I went with the 235/65/17 Cooper Discover M&S https://www.treaddepot.com/#!productDetail/tireStandardFitment/90000003051

A little noisy but handle well and bite in snow and deep slush is great!

The 18" Manhattan Wheels for sale here on forum are a good choice, crab them up!
