I think they're called the "sport" model. I will have a proper check if I remember later, a better picture might help as well.
they won't be as sticky as the toyos but I think they will wear better.

Those Comps look spot on Jeff. Suits the black Polo perfectly.
Plenty of room behind them for some big brakes too!

Looks very nice! I'm considering this wheel also for next year, but wan't to go dark grey or gunmetal.
Are they very heavy? Do you use any spacers?
Where did you get the antenna?

I weighed my tyres and wheels before fitting - I think they're about 2kg heavier per corner than standard wheels and tyres.

Whats the offset on these wheels? Whats the best offset to go with for a 17x7.5 rim?

tt comps are 7.5x17 and an offset of 32, the pcd is 5x100
they sit on the polo absolutely perfectly close to the arches edge but not out and do not require spacers or extended wheel bolts, the right choice for the car
