195/40 on 8x16
205/40 or 215/35 on 9x16

Andy had 9x16 ET21 with 215/35 tyres at back on his GTI!here are few pics to see how that looked:







he also had camber shims at the back!

this guy has 8x16 ET15 at front and 9x16 ET20 at back with 195/45 tyres so your wheels will have 10mm less poke and more stretched tyre at front and the same amount of poke at the back and a nicer stretch!he doesn't run camber shims at the back like Andy!

Thanks mate much help.

But seeing that 9j et20 is making me think now. I was going to get 8j on the front and 9j on the back but looking at the pictures you put up I'm not sure if I like 9j on the back? It almost looks like a monster truck from behind? Might just be me lol.

Can anyone please put some pic's up of polo's with 9j et20 up and 8j et 20 up please (that's on the back)

Thanks Joe
