I'm speaking from personal experience, from when I had 15" TSW volcano's on my polo, but I'm 100% sure on the PCD. 195/45/15 is if you want to keep the same rolling radius as stock.
If you want more information on tyres and wheels, there's the MK4 FAQ thread in the MK4 forum, which is useful, as the MK4 and 5 are more or less similar to each other.

ET is the offset of the wheel. A lower ET means that the wheel sticks out more, and a higher ET means the wheel is sits further in the arch.
As stated in the MK4 FAQ, you should aim for an offset between 35 and 43. With ET27, there probably will be a bit of scrubbage, unless you go with a wheel with a width of less than 7J, you may get away with it, if it isn't too low.
