wheel well. i think most of the people on the board have lowered the front more then the back because they say it looks like the back is squating but i don't think mine looks like that with the wheels at the outer edge of the fender flare. this is the only picture i have of my allroad lowered, sorry for the snow

Default once you get the hang of lowering with vag you will be trying all different levels and it will

become really simple and nowhere as stressful as the first time. 1 inch lower in the winter is harsh but with it being in the 60's around here now it doesn't seem that much different then original level 1.
