Re: which wheels to get?
+1 for the Boavista wheels as they look just superb, better than any of the aftermarket alloys IMO

Another +1 for Boavistas 
Re: which wheels to get?
Boavistas are lovely oem wheels but for the price they go for, there's plenty other options available
Re: which wheels to get?
boavista's blend into the mist imo... dont like the look very much either
but each to there own!!!
get something 17 and around 8" wide and you are all good

What about these??




Re: which wheels to get?
I'm planning to migrate my Montreal II wheels I have on my Beetle into my Polo.
I've painted in a dark grey metallic. In the end it should be like this:

These are 16".

Re: which wheels to get?
Lm's are a classic choice, can't go wrong there.
What about something from the audi range, seen a couple of polos on ttrs alloys and the look amazing. Or mercedes segin. Think a member on here may still have some for sale? His user name is phayth I think.
