[sacrifice]

Did a small shoot today in Kutztown, PA. This is my roomate Logan's b5.5 passat.

I'm digging that Passat. What are the specs on the wheels?

What makes it not so average?

What makes it not so average?

I personally have not seen many nicely fitted passats. That would make it not so average in my case.

[exexpat]

I would say "a bit average" in the Australian context of the phrase. Looks pretty good, but not earth shattering. Same for fitment. Front could be spaced a tad.

Agreed. Most Passats I see are stock.

Vette wheels?

+1. Front def. needs a spacer.

They are C5 vette wheels 17x8.5 up front and 18x9.5 out back with an et of 54mm. Im running 1.3" adapter spacers in the rear and 1" in the front. 225/40 rear tires and 205/45 fronts

[BFivePointFive]

And i agree that the front need spaced however on im on adapter spacers at the moment and a new set tends to be a little salty

fake splits. I'm cheap

By the way, This was very wrong:

65mm rear and 56mm fronts
25.4mm spacer/adapters front = 31mm front
33mm rear spacer/adapters rear = 32mm rear

New setup will be 20mm front 18x8
32mm rear 18x9.5
**stretched accordingly
