    Hi, I am looking for rear headrest sets( all 3) for my 2008 Passat comfort model but I could not find the headrest sets anywhere. I have found some headrest sets in ebay mentioning 2000-2005 model. I am not sure the same will be fit for 2008 model also. Please advise me on this. Thanks.

    Does anyone know for sure if the wagon front and rear shocks/struts are the same as the sedan's? And does it make a difference what engine? TDI, V6, etc.? I cant seem to find this info definitively, most of the fitment charts I'm seeing seem fairly generic. I'm looking to upgrade my wore out...

    Hello gents. So I found a set of mercedes AMG 5spokes with new tire for a reasonable price for my b5.5 sedan. Wheels specs are; Front - 7 1/2j 17h2 et37 (7.5x17 et37) with 225/45/17. From the research I have done these should fit without any issues up front. Rear - 8 1/2j 17h2 et34 (8.5x17 et...

    So I found a for sale ad on vortex for 18" BBS Huffs 18x7.5 ET51, I know, most people think they are fugly... But for some reason I really like them. The rim size and width seem ok, but the 51 offset? Do you think I'll rub on anything? Car will be lowered soon, not by much, just to get a tidy...

    Who thought of this setup??? My control arms have been bad for a long time. Each front wheel would move over 1/2 inch so I thought it was time to bite the bullet. I bought the cheapest arms I could and since I've had a really bad, clicking, drivers side axle for the last six months I thought...

    I just purchased the A7 replica wheels for my 2013 Passat TDI SE. They are 20X8.5 with a +42 mm offset and I have 245/35/R20 tires. I don't received them for a few days but I am just trying to prepare myself. I have a feeling I will need some sort of spacer. Does anyone have experience with...

    Hey so i'm about to order VMR V710s 18x8.5 et35 wrapped in 225/40s and i'm trying to figure out the perfect offset for making the wheels flush with the fender (would rather more on the poke side than tuck side if not perfect). First of all, without any spacers, would I be looking at stock...

    Dear Web Community, I have searched for this info and come up with no matches. I want to install projector style headlights on my 2000 Wagon but every set I look at claims a non-fitment for 4mo WAGS ONLY. Is there any truth to this? I'm not interested in plunking down 300 or more on lights...

    So I'm totally noobing it, but hopefully I don't seem too stupid by asking this. My friends dad said he'd sell me these rims with continentals for like $200 for the whole set. I tried to put one on at his house to see how it would look and it didn't fit at all. I'm just wondering the most...

    Hey All! I'm buying new summer wheels and tires soon, need to know if the sizes will work with no issues. Wheels are 18x8 et35 all around. What tires would work? I don't want any stretch on them. 225x40x18? Also Have Bilstein Struts and H&R Sport springs to be installed too.

    I ordered a set of adapters for my C4 Sawblades that should be arriving by Tuesday. They are staggered 1" and 1.25", and the tires are 205s and 215s stretched on 17x8.5" and 17x9.5" wheels, respectively. I have a 2002 Passat wagon 1.8T lowered on Raceland coilovers. I was wondering if there is...
