17's were standard for S3 XR8. However, dealer fitted 16's was also an option. If you have the 16's then most likely dealer fitted.

Sometimes people got them swapped out at the dealer. Happened a lot out in the country on rough roads. You used to see EL XR8s with 15in wheels when they were a bit newer
