    Tryes size for our Polo GTI

    Hi folks,
    Just wondering can a 215 45 R17 run on our Polo GTI?
    I knew some of our mates is running on a 215 40 R17,

    so just wondering can our polo run on 215 45 R17, without having any problem?

    Thxs folks!!

    as far as i know you will get rubbing, never tried it myself though..... also it will throw your speedo way out of wack, and looks stupid (tractor-like).

    i have 205/40 R17 and my speedo seems to be pretty accurate.

    Dam they are pretty slick looking rims ey. They'll look hot against the white duco. Where's the best place to get Oz rims? Easily the best finished rims I've seen. I bet they don't come cheap.
