    Offset is too high.

    probably not, think your stock is like 6.5et43, or 7et38? so would be aiming for that minimum.

    It would have to be pretty crazy...as ATYPIC and Dylan have said.

    Even if it was 5x100, the offset is still not right for the Polo GTI as it is ET46, may have rubbing on you suspension or brake components.
