Looking at a polo for sale and it have bigger brakes then standard, they fit under the standard wheels (just) and was just wondering if you guy know brake up grades people do to give me an idea? and to tell if a set of 15"/ 16" bbs splits (rs) will go over them?
Thanks Joe

16 inch rs will fit depending on the offset. bbs are a motorsport wheel so tend to have good clearence

it would be pretty hard to fit 16" rs's over the standard gti brakes and even harder on even bigger ones...it all also depends on the rs model number...there are "million" PCD, offset, width rs combos
the safest way is to try the rs's in question directly over the brakes...
