My 2009 CC

[Darks RS]

Here's a before and after

A before


After:



Very happy with the CC so far, few minor warranty issues (passenger seat and rear door seals) plus the usual factory recalls on the DSG and the uppipe.

One more thing to fix is a bit more involved seems to be a ticking (much like tappets) but VW tech seems to indicate an exhaust leak, so wants the car a few days to troubleshoot. am in my extended warranty period, so hopefully won't cost me a cent.

Thoughts on the R32 wheels?

Cheers

i have always loved those r32 wheels. im not one of the ''stance'' boys who like their cars to be super low, but a reduction in wheel arch gap would do the wheels justice in my opinion.

any other plans for it?

LOVE the passat cc!

Not a fan of the zolders unfortunately. The wild spokes don't match the beautiful flowing lines of the passat imo...

Still nice. But five spokes were lovely...

Passat CC's look awesome, though I'm with Dainese, the 5 spoke rims suite the CC better, but its your car, so If your happy with the Zolders, stick with em I say

I would also drop it a tad too

[Darks RS]

Dcc = lower no. I'd love to though as I whole heartedly agree it needs an inch lower

I really only bought for the tyres, but the 5 spokes will get the next lot of tyres in 6 months

nice car mate but those wheels don't suit it. Put the 5 spokes back on

To be honest i don't like the new wheels at all.
I think it's the thin spokes and thing gaps between the spokes.

Bentley's or AMG's look good though.

[Darks RS]

As mentioned, it will get the 5 spokes back on towards the end of the year - I'm running 6mths per set of tyres i've done 20k on my old set on the 5 spokes and I seem to have just under 30% left on them, so these tyres (toyo's) will prob last the same as the old (new) Bridgestones.

Bentleys look the bomb.. but I don't want to spend the $ to match.
AMG's would be a goer but as per Bentleys, a bit pricey!

maybe check out rotiform NUE's.

maybe check out rotiform NUE's.

^^^This.

The simple 5-spoked design of the NUE's would be really nice on the CC (not to mention the finish). As mentioned before, the smoothness of the cars lines are interrupted considerably by the Zolders. Big ups for going a different route on the CC though

[Darks RS]

Checked them out and All I can say is very nice. In 19/20s they would be magic.

maybe check out rotiform NUE's.

while i dont mind the R32 wheels on thier own, i dont think im a fan on the CC.
cleaning those 5 spokes is a dream! my dad has them too.
careful if going amg, bentley or other after market wheels about having it stock height, OEM looking wheels work, but after market wheel at stock height can tend to look funky.

thumbs up for changing it up on a CC tho, dont think we will see much happening to them in AUS for a while..

[Darks RS]

the new CC imo doesn't have the wow factor that the previous model (mine) has.

5 spokes will be back on around Nov, unless someone wants to buy the wheels
