Here's a couple of mine (although it's a MK5)

Take into consideration that GTi's are 15mm lower than the base models anyway

This is a MKIV polo on 15's

And with the right 194/45 tyres it looks like it's on stilts!!!

Are you sure?

Because VW Indianapolis wheels, as shown on the red Polo above, are 6Jx14.

What size are they tyres - i think you will find the sidewalls will have 14 on there somewhere

Rim size is measured in the well where the tyres sits!!

You don't need a new tape measure but you will have learnt something

Bstarschild I dont know whether its the ground you have parked on but your car looks quite high compaired to mine in the pic your posted up. Im on 195/45/15's also but it just looks lower thats all. I definately need to get it lowered soon tho.
