    I want a set of 16' bbs rx2 (?)s on my cab. They look so good in the VAG sales place in my town on the cabs there.

    Four stud to, so no hassle fitting them.

    But 350 a corner.

    Yeah like

    whatever.

    Soryr may as well delete the post, is rubbish like!

    you mean like the rims on my anni??

    Look on ebay. Always some off a mk4 on there, you'd need lower profile tyres though.

    I dont think its a big job to convert to 5 stud though? I'm sure someone round here could tell you how... (not me sadly, much as I like helping damsels in distress :lol:)

    Yup 16" 6 1/2" 4x100 on the polo

    How about getting new blank hubs & discs, then get them drilled 5x100 [:?:]

    As someone says, you could just put gti running gear on and a plus axel.

    That would work.

    if you're happy with 15"s you can get the mkV polo gti bbs alloys. they're 4 stud, and quite often available second hand. they're identical to mkIII anni wheels but smaller and 4 stud.

    but all you'd be doing is upgrading it to gti spec suspension wouldnt you? I'm no expert but I cant see how it would make it worse. Change it maybe but for the better I'd have thought.

    changing that would mean a: lots of garage work as i am uselss at these things. b: insurance. Elephant hate mods. And like to charge big money for them!

    Tell me more about these polo 4 studs?

    Does anybody have any pics?

    have you actually rund up elephant and asked them? think you'll find a simple suspension kit ('its just to make it look better, not make it corner faster' ;) ) won't be that big a deal. directline on the other hand would wanna double the premium!

    polo gti wheels


    oakgreen88 has some on his mkII. ard to find uncoroded ones tho, just like mkIII anni ones (which these are identical to but smaller and 4 stud)
