Personally I would go for the top ones.
The Lensos are a bit more jap-style I reckon. Nice, but I wouldn't pick them over the others

I prefer the top set, dont like the sec set at all, I reckon 1st set would suit the polo much better as there sort of a similar style to the orginal bbs and they really suit the car.

I actually like the second set, the Lensos, I like them because they look pretty minimalistic and sporty...and will be hey of a lot easier to clean than the BBS look-a-likes!

Actually having a second look, the first set aren't that bad looking, yes, they look like BBS, but more like the ones you get on the MkIV Golf Anni's...BBS RC if I remember correctly...nice...

Ha ha ha, I was hoping to go for the subtle look but alas, it appears not to have worked! You are indeed correct in your assumption, they are 16" BBS RX II Split rims, exactly the same as the ones on the standard Polo GTI...but one inch bigger...size does matter apparently!
Well spotted!

hey dude, the ace 112's are .... errr...... ACE!!
i was gonna get em until i got my others (see gti photogallery). WHen i looked i could find them in a 16", they were discontinued at the time. Think they were gonna be remade but not in a 16. DOnt go bigger than a 16" if you can 17" will comprimise the practicality and look dubbish on such an eckle car. Polos suit lowerdness and smaller rims if you ask me
