Hello tdi crew, was curious as to raise the nms (some refer to as b7) to fit larger tires. I am staring at the spring perch and a 255/55/18 will fit but perfectly cuts the perch in half - looking at it from side on ground and doing measurements. I was looking at the Atlas front struts, Atlas adventure springs, Atlas rear irs parts, neuspeed 28mm rear sway/ +endlinks. (not a huge fan of spring/strut spacers but they work brilliantly)
On the flipside, performance wise I was looking at H&R sport/race springs depending on availability and teeth vibrating, 2" (30mm) lift spacers - remember height, still 28mm sway/+endlinks.
The spring perch to hub on the front strut is my only/main limitation.
Jettas can run tiguan struts/springs/hardware and get the lift/clearance, what is the option for the passat? (Sledge Hammer- Hammer time?)
mkvi facelift jetta can run 235/50/17 just fine with zero rubbing on factory wheels and suspension, I am pulling hair out with 2015 passat. Also diesel, spring psi/rating is irritating. My goal is to run A/T's, and eventually R32 or Golf R Calipers/rotors/braided lines.
Travel cross country (north america) florida-washington state, ferry ramps suck approach/center/departure (tide timing isn't always available) and enjoy the freedom between pavement and gravel/drainage ditch/whatever to get around object/ tree/ dead carcass/ flooding. TDI options are limited as we all know, Australia has the diesel subaru outback
