Scraping the nose on driveways : (

[kaanage]

Ah. So they changed the standard model tyre sizing with the update.

I knew the older Comfortlines came with the same tyres as my 9N3 TDi (195/55R15) and the Trendline came with 175/70R14.

You won't be able to get significantly more clearance without breaking the law on rolling diameter changes or else by raising the suspension - VWs seem to have a long front overhang as our Golf scrapes on parking barriers too

VWs have had well filled wheel arches for a long time. I wonder if the apparently low approach angle caused by the low airdam under the nose is a feature of trying to optimise aero for autobahns.
