Will after market alloys void warranty?

[Fraza111]

If i change the alloys on my cupra 1.4 tsi will my warrenty void?

 

[Hurdy]

It depends.....

If the alloys are of the same size and offset with the same pcd (ie no adapters) then there shouldn't be any warranty issue. If you change the alloys for some exotic size, offest or something like Porsche rims that need adapters then you are likely to void any warranty that would cover suspension, bushes, bearings etc. It wouldn't invalidate anything like the engine, bodywork (unless it rubs!) interior or electrics. They have to show that any modifications directly affected the failed part.

Thanks buddy, so basically i need the same size alloy and wheel?

so if i go for like fox racing alloys for example would that be alright

like hurdy said as long as it the same size wheel & doesnt poke out from the wheel arches you be fine with that.

Ive got TT Comps on mine and have had warranty work done on a speaker. I would imagine any other issue around or near the arches they may object to.
My car was pulling to the left. They adjust it, and now it pulls the the right. Typically. They are blaming the alloys. Even though they were refurbed and rebalanced!

The wheels will void the warranty on anything that's associated with them, unless you buy SEATs own wheels. Sad I know.

Or if you need any warranty done just put the original ones back on lol

Tell me you're being sarcy!

 

[ibizaracebrake]

OK, I wasn't being totally serious ,as having done all of that it's a bit late to worry about the so-called'warranty' now.
