    Think I am going to run it as is for at least another summer.

    I put the stock 5 spoke 17s off an A4 on my 2003 Wagon, I painted them bodycolor and as my wife primarily drives the wagon with our kid in it, she won't let me lower it, here is a crappy pic from the garage when I first brought it home with the wheels on it. The ride quality is quite good still.

    Not arguing that that doesnt look sweet, but would look 4x4 at stock height... I love the lowered look but I just don't think it makes sense in this car for where I will drive it. Maybe I'll change my mind of I keep looking at pics...

    I bet the right 18" could pull it off.

    B5.5 Passat wheel question

    I don't think I will lower my Passat. I've used all the clearance it has on the camping trip I just went on. What I'm wondering is how big a wheel can I get on this thing at stock height before it looks like crap? I have 16"s now. I'm sort of thinking 17's are probably as big as I can go before it starts looking dumb. Thoughts?
