For those who want their VW Passat Mk 5 (3C/B6) Saloon and Estate sitting as low as it can possibly go without compromise, the Stance+ Proline is the answer. Up to 75mm of drop on most applications, base-adjustable front struts for full damper travel at any height, and fixed uprated damping throughout. Suitable for 2WD and 4 Motion models.
What makes the Proline different is how it achieves its extreme lowering. Conventional coilover kits move the spring seat to lower the car, which reduces damper travel at lower ride heights and can lead to a harsher, more compromised ride. The Proline takes a different approach: the front strut body itself is adjustable in length, shortening or lengthening to set the ride height while keeping 100% piston rod travel at all times. You can run it seriously low and still have the full damper stroke working for you.
On the road, the performance improvement over factory suspension is significant. Gas-assisted, oil-filled FUCH dampers are set approximately 25-30% stiffer than standard, delivering flatter cornering, sharper turn-in, and noticeably better body control. NOK oil seals throughout ensure long-term durability, and the powder coated bodies are built to handle whatever the British weather throws at them.
Fixed damping is set at around 25-30% above factory specification, tuned to suit the specific weight and geometry of your VW Passat Mk 5 (3C/B6). It's a firm, capable setup that strikes the right balance between handling performance and day-to-day usability.
The Proline's base-adjustable design gives your VW Passat Mk 5 (3C/B6) up to 75mm of drop while keeping 100% damper travel intact, so the suspension system can do its job properly at any ride height.
Fitting is a direct swap with your factory suspension, reusing OE top mounts and bearings. We always recommend fitting new top mounts. Copper grease the threaded base and collars before fitting. Have it installed by a qualified mechanic and get the alignment reset. Drop links included where needed. 2-year warranty as standard.
Kit supplied with 55mm front strut diameters.
