Personally i think 17's look awful on a Polo, but it's your personal choice at the end of the day. Play it safe with the 15's if i were you, are they street octanes? R1CH has some on his, check out pics of his car 8)

Yup they're not amazing, off a mark 3 golf i believe... theres a thread lurking around these parts somewhere about them. Just keep your eye out for a bargain!

i have experiance with the 17" and i have to say m8, dont get them, they rub, ur forever changing the tyres and well the car looks like its riding too high so u cant lower it much, if at all. Seriously go with the 15" the car was designed to ride on them anyways
