    77TSI Polo rim upgrade sizes

    Apologies if this info is out here but I've been searching the forums (and every where else) for the past few days to no avail. I'm trying to find what rims will fit with stock suspension. I have a 2013 77TSI Polo Comfortline, I am currently looking at some 17x7.5 ET35s with 215/45R17s. My current stock rim (I believe) is 15x6 ET40, running 195/55R15s.

    According to willtheyfit.com the new set up will be 14mm closer to the strut and 24mm out towards the fender. From my loose measurements I think it'll fit, but looks like the front might be either a) poking slightly outside the guards or b) only have 5-10mm wiggle room with the strut. The rear looks like it'll be fine.

    Can anyone weigh in if these wheels will fit or have had these rims/tyre combo fit. It seems pretty difficult to find info as it appears not many people modify the base line Polos, only the GTIs. Also side note, the rear of the car seems to sit much prouder than the front, as it stands I think the rear arch is sitting 40mm higher than the front does - is this common?

    Cheers guys.
