Whats a sensible but nice size wheel and tyre combination to fit the arches of a MKV polo which will look good??

I have 15" and 7" wide wheels mate, they tuck up in the arches luvly. Mine is stupidly low but some ppl might not want to go that low.

I dont have any problems with speed bumps even with two ppl in the car (im not the thinnest of ppl either lol)

Check the pics out if u like dude

Best looking option I would say 16's at 7.5J with tyres with a slight stretch. You'd probably go for ***/40/R16 tyres. the lower the offset, the more likely it'd get scrubbage from your arch hence the need for stretched tyres or a raise in height.
