Lol sounds good, might wanna look into the afternark ones while using your stock struts not sure if there would be a travel issue or not

There's actually quite a few people that have used stock ones either OEM Tiguan springs, like sportwagens and golf Tdi's. Lot of MK5 people doing it too lol.

You can mess with the bump stops to potentially make the gap smaller

Mines a decent gap.. all the water resistance is under the hatch anyways. its designed to run into the door and around the sides. Ill double check how big the gap is in a little but i think mine is similar is gap size.

Go to 2:00 to see how to adjust the bump stops:
Keep in mind they also help to minimize squeaks and rattles, so adjust with caution.

cool thx dude
I have H&R Super Sports on my car right now with the stock struts/shocks and I don't rub at all, never have. I also haven't done the fender screw mod. My wheels are 18x8.5 with 225/40 tires. When I swap out the struts/shocks with Koni Oranges, will I start rubbing? I figured there is more shock travel so ill rub on big bumps.
