What does everyone think of the Audi A8 alloys? I'm not sure how they'll look on the Polo.

On a smooth low Polo I reckon they would look pretty good actually! Especially suited to dark colours though IMHO. 16"x7" should fit assuming you can purchase them in a 4x100 fitment and at the correct fitment

I love these badboys (slightly biased tho)

I've always liked these alloys look really smart.

yeah i think as long as ur car get really low, they will be fine!! and as long as u get 4x100 fitment!! and as long as u get the 16s and don't change ur mind and get 17s

lol what is meant by 4x100 and 'correct fitment'?? Also does anybody know anywhere else I could find te A8 wheels in 16"? I can't find 'em anywhere except this site.

4x100 is the stud patter of the wheels you need. 4 studs, 100mm apart iirc.

Audi fitment is 5 stud with a different offset too. So you either need adapters or wheels drilled with the right stud pattern

o i see! thanks alot. is it gonna be hard to get hold of adaptors?

No idea mate. I have seen 4 stud dubs with 5 stud wheels so I shouldn't think so.

Try venom motorsport or Rennsport. I think I remember them having some

That's it mate, it's measured from the centre of one hole to the centre of the other

A technical thing I actually know for once
