Hi There

I'm Hoping to buy 14 INCH STEFFAN BCW for my 1999 VW Polo, the suspension is currently normal (as it comes from the manufacturer).
the offset of the wheels are:

FRONT WHEELS ARE 7J WIDE AND ET 24
REAR WHEELS ARE 9J WIDE AND ET 10

Is there anything I need to know Before I buy the wheels?? do I have to make any modification to the car??

Thanks

Nice wheels, love the BCWs

They'll fit, the rears may be illegal though as the tread may exceed the arches. You'd also get a fair amount of scrubbing at the back if you go lower I reckon.

With such a staggered stance you'll also suffer pretty horrible understeer.

heres a pic of my new wee run-a-bout with 8' Bcw's.

I'd definitely go with 8s all round
