hi guys I have a vw sportline t6 2019 campervan and I want to raise it more as it's too low and touches the inside of the wheel arch. I also have a sports suspension and I don't know if that's what is causing the problem. is there anything I can do? thank you.
 
Got some pics?

What size wheels you got?

Is it OEM standard sportline suspension?
 
the suspension is bilstein B14 , 275/40/20 in the front and 265/40/20 in the back. thank you. sadly it's not letting me attach a photo sorry.

Having the bigger size tyres on the front is probably your problem? Why are they bigger at the front?
 
Because it's a FWD :uh run:
I would try swapping front to back and if that's not enough for you go to a garage and let them raise it and do a wheel alignment.
 
How old is the suspension. 6 or 7 years ago B14 was the go to for Transporters, but there are far better products now.
 
As the others have said put the wider tyres on the rear.

As it’s on coil overs I would raise it as well.

I had 20” wheels with cheap Chinese 275/40 R17’s on mine when I bought it. It was also too low on H&R springs and drove horribly.

The first thing I did the day after I bought it was to put a set of 18” Sportline alloys on with Michelin tyres and that immediately made it drive a lot better. The suspension was still terrible though so I went to @CRS Performance and had their Evo Technik kit fitted which completely transformed how it drove. It wasn’t cheap but for the quality of ride and improvement to handling it was worth every penny.
