The VW Passat 3C (B6/B7), available as a sedan or Variant, is a comfortable mid-range model with high everyday usability. Depending on the engine, equipment, and body style, the series has different axle loads, large brake systems, and, for 4Motion models, specific requirements for rolling circumference and tire approvals.
To ensure the Passat 3C offers maximum safety and stability even in winter, technically precisely coordinated winter wheel sets are essential.
