  • Would these take much to fit on the 9n3 GTI?

    Hey guys i've been looking at wheels to fit upto my GTI when it comes but havn't seen much to my liking in aftermarket rims. So started doing a few searches and came across these babies!

    How would you go about fitting them to a Polo GTI as they are the Hotness!!!

    You'd need to find replicas that have the right size and offset, then it would be a matter of putting tyres on them and bolting them on

      Yeah i thought as much, i may have to do some digging around to find some replica's then.
      18's would look dead sexy i reckon

          Indeed they are, Porsche Twist i think they are called. They are off the 993 and 996 models but i don't like the chance's of fitting 18x8's on the little polo

            As others have already said you would need to find replica wheels or adapters as the Porsche wheels are 5x130.

            You could try these guys in Sydney, they seem to have access to alot of replica wheels.

            These 1/3 scale Formula 1 Pirelli P-Zero replica tyre is an impressive addition to any sports memorabilia collection or man-cave and a must-have for F1 enthusiasts. Made with a real raced tyre!Crafted with exceptional attention to detail, whether you're a fan of Hamilton or Vettel, this is for you!




            Good luck they look great on a Polo

              They would be a 5x130 wheel even replicas! In any case you will need adaptors and for a decent set they will set you back another 700 bucks!

                Don't do it, worst wheels to copy cos it's so obvious it's from a Porsche Turbo.

                  Just curious, what's the widest wheel you can get onto a Polo GTI? 7.5 or 8?

                    :slaphead: The wheels in the pic are replicas made by RH - they're already available in multiple stud patterns and offsets and are by no means difficult to fit.

                    You can fit 10" wheels on the rear if you want to stretch the tyres, 9s with 215s if you want to be mildly sensible

                    Edit: Nice move losing the HSV for a VW

                      Slightly off-topic, but I think that these would look good on a Polo (I saw them on a Golf the other day). Only available in 17x8 et 35

                        Legally you can't fit 9 or 10 inch wide rims...

                        Actually you probably can't fit anything wider than 7.5 inches on a polo.
