Hey dude, I'm not too sure who owns the polo above, but Silky V on this forum has D90's on his GTi, and he's down about 60/70mm on KW V2 coilies. Looking at his car, he still has a bit of arch gap, so 100mm on D90's is well within limits.

The D90's do have a really high ET, think its like 50 something, but as you'll prob know, you'll need to run adaptors, which are round about 20-25mm thick so it brings the ET right back down. You should happily get away with 70mm or so on quality coilovers. Would definitely go for decent suspension if you don't want rubbing. And it'll be a firm ride!
I seem to remember you had cut springs. You still got that or have you got yourself something else?

No, just 4 to 5 stud adaptors.
