They might go on, but would stick out miles from the offset. Not sure if the normal arches would cover them enough or not. They do look amazing

Might fit so long as your suspension's high enough... but like the guy selling them says --- you'll need some major spacers (and longer bolts) to make em fit over the brake calipers, and serious arch widening work to keep the tread inside the bodywork (kind of a legal and safety requirement)
Last time i heard anyone mention it, 5.5 inch wheels were the widest you could safely fit under a polo... maybe 6 if you had stretched tyres and were ok with a little scrub in extreme conditions.

I think you can manage 6 (with standard suspension), at least I'm hoping so, seen as my RAs are the 6" wide versions.
