    Re: swagger passat

    Thanks guys. Ya my brother and his fiancee aren't exactly the smallest members of the family and my rim was grinding on my fender from the airport all the way to their place. Nightmare

    Yes the wheels aren't centered in the back. seems that the lower I go the farther they get pushed forward. As for the rake.... don't worry the fronts coming down another 0.5-1.5 once my control arm kit comes

    took a few more shots after work today

          I think I prefer the Rieger front... It has more of an OEM style IMO

                  I love the votex front, but I think only because the guy has the matching skirts and is bagged. Your car is low, but not as low as this one. Therefore I vote Reiger as well

                        I picked up votex sides last night. Only reason why I am debating is because the same guy has the votex front as well. But your right that guy with the full votex kit is running bags while the guy with the rieger front is static, he only brings his car down that low for pic's and has the wheel wells cut for the control arm clearance. The rieger is my first choice, just wondering if I can get one in time and not 6 months down the road.

                        I want to go lower but I need these 19's gone before I even consider new wheels. The offset on them is to aggressive to tuck without decent fender work.

                          With the Reiger, it matches your current grill. I believe AMI carries it from BC.



                          With the Votex front, the car would look better with the mesh grill from Kamei.



                          Car will look great!!!

                              Reiger looks neat but just doesn't look aggressive, reiger with the stick on ez lip from ebay will look perfect. Yes it's ebay but don't show racism

                                Rieger lip should be here in a month so aero should be on early june. Ha just in time for me to destroy it.

                                On a side note, I hate my freaking thread title.

                                Also on the hunt for new wheels still, I hate the ride of my 19's. Working on a custom color 18x9.5 +33 wheel
