What does everyone think of the Audi A8 alloys? I'm not sure how they'll look on the Polo.

On a smooth low Polo I reckon they would look pretty good actually! Especially suited to dark colours though IMHO. 16"x7" should fit assuming you can purchase them in a 4x100 fitment and at the correct fitment

I've always liked these alloys look really smart.

4x100 is the stud patter of the wheels you need. 4 studs, 100mm apart iirc.
Audi fitment is 5 stud with a different offset too. So you either need adapters or wheels drilled with the right stud pattern

No idea mate. I have seen 4 stud dubs with 5 stud wheels so I shouldn't think so.
Try venom motorsport or Rennsport. I think I remember them having some

That's it mate, it's measured from the centre of one hole to the centre of the other
A technical thing I actually know for once
