Does someone know if these wheels will fit nicely onto my Polo? If not, can someone recommend a better width etc?

Thanks guys/girls

im thinhking about doing it, they should in theory fit but will probably scrub with the et18, so arch work is going to be needed. thing is im not to sure about the centre bore size.. anyone know what the polos is?

the centre bore is 57.0mm

So you'd need spigot rings.

Okay, so I got some mixed answers there. So, what are spigot rings? (They help to fill out a space I'm guessing? Kind of packing it?)

Would they actually scrub? If they will, would a 5.5" wheel be better? I've got 5" steelies on the back of my car just now, so I'm assuming a half inch would be all right.

Sorry for the questions people, I'd just like to get some facts first

most aftermarket alloys come with plastic spigot rings.i reacon you could get a local metalwork place to knock up some aluminium one fairly easily that would fid inside the hub of the weller wheel and have an inside centre bore of 57mm
