Look nice, nearly went for a set of those myself in all honesty but in 17" as Fox do some good Polo friendly offsets.

I'd have gone for 17's personally to reduce the tyre sidewall a bit but everyone has their own take on wheel selection, size and tyre etc... it's what makes us all unique.

I went for gun-metal wheels on my Candy White as mine had Gloss Black on and felt most where I live has the white/black rim combination.

That said, may well change these to Matt Black XXR 527's in the coming weeks if I keep the car? Had Matt Black Rotiform BLQ's on my Mk5 R32 and loved the finish, hides dirt and dust really well, pic below

Agreed = the awesome thing about a white car is that you can go mad with ANY wheel colour, why not go lumo :lol:

White on white will look ace, but brake dust is a b*tch :evil:

My rims are gunmetal/anthracite (not too sure about the name of the colour), and it looks "fresh" compared to the "normal" silver and or black variants out there, Black is outdated IMO

Hey
Im planning to buy Fox Fx004 for my Black Polo 2011 Masters, what size tires do you have on yours?

Im thinking between 17" with 205/45 r17 or 16" with 205/50 r16 will both of these fit?
