The Volkswagen Passat B8 (3G) is one of Europe's most popular mid-range models, combining high long-distance comfort with modern MQB technology. Thanks to efficient TSI and TDI engines, the Passat GTE plug-in hybrid, and optional 4Motion all-wheel drive, the Passat places different technical demands on complete summer wheel sets.
The B8's axle geometry, its aerodynamic vehicle shape, the large brake systems on more powerful engines, and the hybrid/all-wheel-drive technology make precisely coordinated rims & summer tires indispensable.
Reifenshop Landshut only offers summer wheels that are 100% compatible with all Passat B8 variants – regardless of whether it's the sedan or the Variant.
