I am sure you can get them in 17 but they are 5x112 pcd and the polo is 5x100 pcd, but you can get adaptors :D

They are 5x112 but there are replica 17".. But these seem to be the painted ones not the polished ones

well 2 of us have got rid due to handling problems and acceleration response! also make shure you get decent tyres as a remapped polo on crap tyres is a no no i nearly died LOL the toyo proxy 4s i have now are good choice but continental sports are the best!! :P :P

My reps were really heavy, got a shock when i went to pick them up the 1st time! My comps are sooo much lighter! And as Chris says get some good tyres, i like Goodyear Eagle F1's :D Think i will try conti sports next tho, was reading a review in a car magazine and they get a very good write up!
