If its the car in the picure, you dont have a 2001, that is a pic of a B6, which started in 2002.

I'd trust someone to know their own car MY...and he's from the UK, so his car could easily be a B6.

Try TireRack.com. They'd sell you the right sizes for your application. The fronts are 11.3 inches, or 288mm.
