Another owner here, jamesatfysh, has installed this kit because he is developing the car for tarmac rallying. I'd suggest you PM him, as he has reported considerable problems in identifying wheels that will fit. At present, I think he has a set of 17" TT wheels. He originally had the Exor wheels and they did NOT fit over the Brembos.

There are other big brake options which do not give such wheel fitment problems. For example, fitting 312mm disks and calipers from an Audi TT will enable you to use the stock 16's as well as virtually any 17's; fitting MkIV R32 brake disks and calipers means you can use most 17's; and I think Guy also has an Alcon kit that still fits under most 17's

You would be best to speak to Guy about that.I'm sure he'll chime in shortly.

I have just bought myself a second hand but absolutely immaculate Polo GTi and so far I am loving it. I decided to buy used because I have plans to modify the car a lot and didn't think it was necessary to buy new if I was just gong to void the warranty. Anyway, I am planning on an APR Stage 1 Brembo brake kit and i'm not sure if my current wheels will fit with it. I have the Exor STP wheels and I love these wheels so much and really don't want to change them. Does anyone know if the Brembo kit will fit with these wheels?
