Same price as the dealership....

Try eBay. The knock offs are sometimes OK. Mine are knock offs. Probably only a minor difference

Re: From China with Love

Cool. Just remember that shipping and duties will probably make them the same price as in town :( unless there is other stuff from ECS that you want. If you want to get em a bit cheaper i would check with Calgary Auto Works and see if they can bring them in on their next ECS tuning order so you can avoid some of the duties, it usually works out to be a better price than the dealerships

Are those the wheels that were on kijiji for $450? Seems pricey if they had no centercaps

I paid $400 for them, they were on kijiji. I thought they were really rare, and they are because the chinese doesn't even make fake caps for them..

Lol I never knew you can do that, I have a 180000KM service coming up, need air, fuel filters, coil pack and spark plugs, and i'll just buy the caps with those on my next order.

Summer mode

So I've finally found the proper ride height and did the alignment last week. The alignment apparatus took about 30min to set up and took about 15min to adjust. Got a bit more camber and the car handles slightly more resposive, but the suspension is bottoming out when going over some speed bumps.



Here are a few more pictures of the Passat this summer, see the sticker?

Re: From China with Love

Are you rubbing or bottoming out?? Looks like it shouldn't be low enough to bottom out...but then again I know nothing.
