I wondered how much power there is to be had out of his current lump as its a low miler? Any links, help or advice would be cool...

Re: 19s on lowered pasat?
You can get fully adjustable control arms for the front. They r made by Stern and I've had em fitted for a year now and get no issues at all with tyre wear and I'm wound a fair way down.

Re: 19s on lowered pasat?
Tracking was only done a while back... How adjustable is the camber? I don't know whether to get new tires and try again or go smaller... Can't really afford a fw hundred quid every few months in tires but my baby looks naked with out her nice shoes

19s on lowered pasat?
hi,
My passat is lowered 50mm ish i believe and has 19 inch audi reps with 35 profile tires... has anyone else had issues with them? seems to be killing tires.. or is this just because the profile is so thin??
