hi i have a polo 2000 1.4 . Its not lowered and i was wondering if it was possible of putting 17" WHEELS WITH 235/45/17 on it. I think i would need a bolt adaptor but i don't know where to get them. Could anyone help?

PCD adapters can be sourced @ H&R, for example, but there are more companies that sell these IIRC.

No way.

Wheels may, but with different tyres. The difference is 15%. Too big. I'd consider 1 or 2 % MAX.
