Octavia RS front strut diameter

[zei20t]

Anyone know for sure if the RS is 55mm or do I have to go measure mine?

Looking at coilovers, turns out the same part numbers for some models of Golfs and Jettas can be used on Octavias - as we know from Darkshadow. My only issue is are they 55mm or 49.5mm...........

Mines a 2011(MY12) RS DSG hatch if it makes a difference.

thanks!

If you had asked this 3 days ago i could have measured it for you while i was installing my springs....

55mm every day of the week. My 118tsi is 55mm as well

The smaller 50mm diameter is for the 77tsi, 90tsi, etc
