With R compound tires, I was keeping up with well driven S2000s on Starspec and RS3s. My buddy drives the S2000 and we are exactly even in the straightway of the track. This is on stock springs and a set of Tokico illumina shocks.
Mine is stock height on the rear with Bilstein HDs for a Volvo 240. perfect match to stock shock length.
The beetle ones have done me right for probably 30k miles. My setup is 3.5 in drop plates on 13"s with no leafs removed, it can still haul 800lbs with 130psi in the rear no problem.
Rear shocks are Rancho 9000 nine-way adjustables, set at "3-clicks in" by Mike's son Matt, who's in charge of suspension tuning.
I have the FSDs in my Passat, and they are truly phenomenal if you want an improvement in both daily driving capability, great turn-in, and less roll and movement through the turns in a daily driver on challenging roads and challenging road surfaces.

AAS (Auto Adjusting Suspension) 3 stage adjustable shocks with motor on top that adjusts damping. Super simple reliable system. OEM Front shocks on my car lasted til 300k km. Rear shocks lasted til 240k.
Today it took me a very long time to install the rear bilsteins. I kept thinking I was missing nuts and washers.
I hated the Bilstein HD's on my '97 EVC. The ride was way too harsh and jarring.
