Look at the tire size. Whatever the "R" is on the tire size will tell you how big the rims are. stock tt is 225/45/r17. r17 meaning that the rims are 17inches. That pic looks like 19 inch rims. As far as the chip goes, test drive another 225 that is stock and then compare them.

back to my questions, is it really necessary to have a boost gauge? if i put one, would that void my warranty (100k)? how would i find out what chip it has? and pitrman, how much did it cost to get your rims fixed? i live in socal btw.

Boost, that's our power! so it's good to know what psi you are runnig at.chipped cars are of course running at higher psi (cca 20-25psi) depends on mods... Not sure for 100%, but I would not be affraid of loosing a warranty due to boos gauge... And I paid 195$ for two wheels9 in the post above)
good luck with yout TT
