Hello!
I have Polo 9n 145Ps (chipped) and now i have 17"(205-40)..i was thinking of putting 18" rims next summer but i am affraid that acceleration will be slow and car wouldn't be so agile...could some user with 18" tell if there is a big differnce in driving than on 14" original rims ...215 width of tyre is quite a a lot for thhis "small" car

Well there are some calculators for this question. Search for VMAX Calculator, addizional to your wheel/rim data you need to enter your gearbox ratios for each gear, should give you some hint, don´t trust the values too much

This car has 18" and KW variant 2:

There will be no relevant difference in acceleration in comparison to your 17" rims. The difference between 14"/165 and 17/18" is of course noticable. But one inch will not make you cry

i already made up my mind about 18"
Now im asking for some good suggestions (musnt't be comercialised rims(aka S8, tomason...)

A good suggestions is anything you really like There are so much designs, just pick the one you like the most - that's anything that counts. Take a look in our gallery and you'll get a lot of inspiration
