    Looks good, but I would bring down the front a bit more. Love the LMs on that color

    Oh don't get me wrong, I think the ride height flows well and the wheels make it look great

    Oh it wasnt directed too you. I was just making a statement that Golf/Jetta guys like make those wheels be tucking. lol

    I agree with you on the flow is just right.

    Thanks for all the comment guys, I only fitted them a few days ago so the front will go even lower 45mm, and the rear will go slightly lower by 10mm. I am told within 100 miles of journey the coils will settle down.

    Not much B6's in this colour.

    Spec of wheels:

    Fronts: 8.5JX19 - 235/35/19
    Rears: 9.5JX19 - 245/35/19

    Spec of car:

    2.0 TDI Sport - Got it tuned from Revo Stage 1 remap.

    Altough the tyres hit against the arch when going around corners, I was told that there are metal tabs on the rear bumper, if I bend them inwards then that will stop the noise.

    hey ZEB when you bend that metal tab DON'T bend to hard because that holds the bumper flush to the body, also the front has a screw in the middle of the arch there is a T20 screw, take that out and bend that tab then you could slamm the car without rubbing on fornt or rear.

    Alot of members on the Passat forum told me this, but never mentioned the T20 screw. I will need to take the wheels off as I can't get my hand inside to bend the metal tabs.

    I will try not to bend it hard, and have a look at that T20 screw.


    Thanks

    It needs to settle in it has been lowered to 45mm. Will take 100 mile journey till it gets to 45mm.
    It has gone lower than before, the car will be going to the workshop so I will do some adjustments there.

    Well worth the wait mate.

    They make the car look awesome.

    I'm not a huge fan of the staggered stances but it works for me with these rims.

    Thanks for the comment, LM's set;s the car off and attracts attention when cruising on busy roads
