    i like the styling on the lenso's - its great - not the greatest fan of the time attack theme (black wheels with red lip) since that is a fashion thing - and when fashion changes as it normally does then it wont seem to look as good when the next "flavour of the month" is around

    having said that though the lenso's are very similar to the wheel im using now



    and heres what they look like on my car



    sorry for the phonecam pics - will take some better pics sometime soon

    bottom line - out of all the wheels the opening poster looked at i think that the lenso's are the best - and those are the ones id chose

    the enkeis

    i think you should be able to fit them on as they are 17x7. i know that i can get bridgestone potenzas (i think they are like 205/45r 17's) that have the same diamater across the tyre as the standard 14inch steel wheels with hubcaps that i have on my polo tdi- the only thing is as good as the enkeis would look, i DO go up and down to the snow a bit (3-4 times a week, day trips from melbourne) and i cant get the car lowered too much because i need to be able to put on chains, plus a super low profile tyre would be hell on some of the dodgier parts of the roads outside melbourne.

    so i figured that a higher ride+big big wheels= it looks like im driving a clown car.

    the price is good, though. wheels+ tyres for what, 1600aud? vw was quoting me more than 3000aud for their "exor" 17" wheel and tyre package, and those wheels dont look nearly as good as the enkeis in my opinion.

    i mean, sheizer- if i was gonna spend more than three grand on factory wheels, i might as well go all out and get the official best looking wheels in the world- BBS CH (according to me).

    hey red, did you get the 17's or 18's, cause mine are 18's and i think they make the polo stand out

    the super turismo gt's would look sweet. i've wanted them for a while but they're a bit pricey.. i see they come in black now which is even better

    i'm only guessing but i'd say a set of OZ bought in australia would be at least 2 grand for the wheels alone.

    importing from america (www.tirerack.com) is said to be cheaper
