14" is the standard size. Usually fitted with a 105/70 R14 84F tyre.

Re: space saver spare
Does it have to be vw? Try the local scrappy Renault and I think Vauxhall use 4x100 maybe one of those would have a suitable 15" space saver. The only issue I can think of is that it might not fit in the spare wheel well. I seem to remember the 14" standard one is a pretty tight fit. Might be wrong though, mine is now filled by a 12" sub. .

Re: space saver spare
Mine will be filled with sub too. But with no rear seat, I was going to make a bag for it and chuck it I'm the rear footwell
