Hi Mate,

i would look at 16" BBS RX11's as they are nice and OEM and tend to look a bit larger and arch filling.

I think the wheels here are the wheels from a new VW Golf (the 'GT') spec.

They do look like the GT spec ones. Go nuts and get some HTNs 8)

Then wheels are also present on the Jetta 2.0 TDI Sport...they are a 17" wheel, which i recommend should not be done on a Polo.

16" BBS RX or RXII's look the part and are of a similar design to that of the wheels you posted. RX's can be found easily in 4x100 stud pattern and should be much cheaper than RXII's. Also RXII's are a rare find in 16" with a 4x100 stud pattern as they were mainly used for Mk3 Golf Gti Anniversary and were a 5 stud pattern

If you don't want a deep dish: Schmidt TH Line 7.5x16 with 195/40.

They're the 15" versions man. The cults are even better, but they're only up to 14".

EDIT: They're 16x7 usually but you cna get them wider!

EDIT AGAIN: Just noticed your "No deep dishes plz" comment! ARGH, Sorry!!
