    Go for a 215. Mine are 215 35 18. My wheels are 18x7.5 +38. Not stretch whatsoever.

    yeah ok, thanks for that. i guess the extra 3mm offset I'd have (et35) shouldn't make too much difference....

    you guys have been very helpful... great resource for people like me who know very little about this ...

    Hi, do you have any photos of this wheel & tyre combo? anything from side-on?... I'm considering 17x7.5 ET35 (with 215 40 17) on my polo, but have concerns about it extending beyond the guards.
    Any photos from the same or similar setup would be much appreciated....

    An offset of 45 or 205's would be safe.

    My car is filthy at the moment. All I have at the moment is this photo.

    205 looks little stretched out on 7.5". Go with 215. Make sure you get ET35 otherwise, you may have rubbing issues on full lock.
    06 Polo GTI - REVO Stage 2 = 140kw @ wheels.
    06 Golf GTI - Bluefin Stage 1 blacked out with ED30 theme, leather, xenon, etc.
