They look very good i think!
If your car was darker it would look even better withh the polished wheels.

Some people dont like to say good things about other peoples' rides... say no names!!

What fitment do the 9n's and 9n3's need when choosing rims??

Looks very nice!
The GTI rims suit the Polo body soo well!

Are they made for the Polo of do the new Golf rims fit the Polo also??

I really want some 16's or 17s for my 9N!

I quite like the intercooler on show, although perhaps the words "forge" could be removed..... each to their own!

also, I know this is a quest for power but is 300bhp going to make it a bit stressed and hard on the components? the longevity of setting it to 250 might be a bit easier to live with ...

I don't think you will be leaving an EVO8 :p Don't forget it is AWD.

You will most likely be having problems with traction while accelerating fast if you put on that much power on a Polo which is FWD!
