you should of done ya homework before jumping into the deep end mate, trust me a learnt the hard way lol
(btw m14 means 14mm diameter head of the bolt, and 1.5 is the bolt thread pitch)
well take the m14x1.5 bolts out of the polo and see if they fit into the alloys,
and if you take the bolts from the new alloys and if you put them up against the standard polo bolts, and if the threads sit onto one another, if sit prefect then you know the pitch is the same as the standard 1.5
take a look at this hope it helps
if the measurements of the polos hub bolts are the same as the alloys bolts which go into the alloys ya no it will fit, but if not, go to a garage and see if they can give you the correct size of the alloy bolts and you know what adapters to buy
ano this sounds confusing but bare with it then you will understand

i cannot realy explain, just put the bolt in the alloy and see if there is any movement,if there alot of movement then you know the bolt is the wrong size, but if it fits the diameter of the hole nice then it is correct
the head of the bolt should sit nicely in the alloy, and the thread should stick out the other side enough so u get enough of thread into the HUB to support the car
