Dear GTi POLOists,

I was thinking of going slightly wider and bigger in terms of wheel size and I love the current standard "euro" wheels that came on my POLO gti.
I was wondering if anyone knows if you can fit the GOLF GTI 17" x 7.5's on the POLO GTi which was 16" x 6.5, has anyone tried this?
tempetyres have replicas but not sure if they'd fit? and they seem to have no idea.

Thanks

You can't go any bigger than 215/35 tyres on 18s. On 17s, 205/40 seem to be the limit. So if you want 205/40 on your wheels, get the replicas that are 5x100 stud pattern.

215/40's can be fitted on 17's, provided the car has not been completely dumped
