195/45-15
Stay clear of Dunlop SP2040s cos they seem to wear down pretty quick (or is it just my driving?)

Well dude i got mine from Topgear for £480 incl tyres, usually charge about £20 to fit em if they is local to ya but i ended up waiting for about 3 weeks due to lenso have back order n few other things
have a look n see if they got ne place near ya
www.topgear.co.uk
one of the best choices ive made on the polo but i learnt the hard way when it cames to wheels etc

think the 205 tyres would be too wide for the polo, i ran 195/45/16 on a 7.5" rim and had a lot of scrubbing!!
someone else might be able to clarify....

Yeah scott's 100% right on this one!
205 will scrub for sure...as this is where i went wrong when i first had the polo brought some nice 17" alloys with 205 tyres - made sure i spoke wit sum pro's as i thought e.g. r-tec and it jst cause me more n more trouble as time went on
So i sold em n brought the lenso's

well not worried bout the rubber, i think i can buy the alloys alone
but they wouldnt stick out 2 far r anything like that ??
from i no the offset is only 20
