Mk3 Breadvan on Pirelli P's

I have a Mk3 Polo Genesis 1272cc Squareback and I'm after some advice , I want to fit Pirelli P's , but am unsure about tyre sizes an arch clearence . It's lowered 35mm and I was thinking of using 185/50/14 tyres , would the front arches need rolling or could i get away with just doing the rears ? Which if anybody knows which bits need trimming (e.g bumper) advice would be great . Cheers gents .

They dont fit, and they look s**t. They are the wrong offset, and you cant get the right tyres for them.

I'd choose a different set of wheels sif I was you.

Ermmm this wouldnt be affected by what wheels you have would it Rob?

I'm sure someone will post a better answer soon mate (i cant really help much cause i've never run rims that small)

Yeah, best with 185-50 14 tyres. Fronts you may get away with, rears will need to be done as it's a squareback.
