    I know mine is a different model but for my Polo there is a rocker switch on the end of the windscreen wiper stalk that scrolls the display up or down.

    A lot of people recommend the Michelin Pilot Sport tyres.

    Most places recommend a wheel alignment every 10-15k so you should definitely do that.

    Mine stalled like that a couple of times after going in for repairs and the battery terminal was loose. After tightening no more problems.

    Just to make it even more crazy, I was in Costco on the weekend and they are selling Michelin Pilot Sport 4 for $150 ea in 215/45 17s.

    Not sure why you would bother with cheap tyres at that price.

    The 17" Boavistas came on the sportspack which was slightly lowered. I can't see any reason why they wouldn't fit on a standard height Polo.

    Whatever you get do not put Bridgestone MY02 anywhere near your car, they are rubbish in the wet after they are worn in.

    So 215/45/17 is actually over 20mm larger in diameter than 215/40/17 so not an option to go up, legally you can only go up to 15mm larger in diameter in Qld.
