Yea they will fit dude.

Have you lowered your car at all?

With regards tyres, you should see if the circumfrance is the same. So you need to get the tyre size right.

I went from a 14" SE alloy with 185 55 tyre to a 15" 195 45. And my speedo isnt out by stupid amounts. Like half a mile an hour lol

Maybe best to get a 195 40 on the 16"? I'm not entirely sure on that bit, but im sure someone else will confirm this

the car isnt lowered but was thinking of a 35mm drop. i would like the 195/45/ on the 16's. just want to see if anyone else has done anything similar. But defintely that spec, (4X100 , 7J and 38offset) will fit the 6n2??

Mine are 4x100 (Standard Polo PCD from Mk1 to Mk5). 7j wide but mine are 15"

your speedo is going to be out if you use a 45 profile with 16's you would be better with a 40.
