9n alloy wheels

[polo9n]

bought sum 17s off internet but they are 7.5 inch width and will need 215 tyres and i think this will be to big to fit my 9n polos archs, luckily i haven't bought any tyres for them yet but what do u reckon ? should i risk gettin the 215 tyres and try spacers n long bolts?

205x40x17s mate. I have some for sale but they are provisionally sold. Will let you know if they don't sell.

[polo9n]

will they fit on alloy though bcause the width will be smaller than actual alloy if u understand me ? so alloy will hang past tyre ?

thats called stretched tyres... it's a euro thing, looks good, and those tyres will fit no problems same size as audi TT comps!

niccce thanks was contemplating selling the alloys on aswel

[polo9n]

is this safe/legal btw ...

[david burton]

7.5 inches is less than 205mm, you don't really get any stretch with 205 tyres.

195/40/17 all the way!!

thats what im running on a 7.5j rim

[polo9n]

the offset is 45 though...

[david burton]

45 brings it further into the car (it's actually -45 offset). So that makes life easier. 215 would probably be fine too but you would have to watch out for rubbing on the inner arch.
