9n on montreal 2 alloys rubbing

Post by Besiktas1903 »

Hi guys new to the forum. I bought a set of montreal 2 alloys for my polo. I've seen a few other polos on here with the same wheels so u decided to buy em.

My polo is a 2006 model facelift and is on stock suspension hasn't been lowered. The new alloys seem to rub in the arches when i turn right. There's 205/55/16 tyres on the rims at the moment.

Will a different tyre size overcome this problem? If so what tyre do i want to go for on stock suspension?

Thanks

Think that tyre size is for the Golf/Bora platform mate. Cant remember for the life of me what the standard size was on the better halfs GT

Monty 2s on mine as well, 205/45 16 for the Polo. 205/55 for the golf arches which the Monty's are more commonly used.
