Thank you, how about 205 / 35 / 18

In Germany, we have TÜV. These are responsible for the safety of our cars. And the need to take off rims and wheels. And since we would only get the 215/35 approved. I do not know where you live, maybe 205 would be a fit yet! In a 18-inch wheels, no one here driving 205/35 tires. Only 215/35!

ok so I dont need any spacer or anything right I just use 215/35/18.

Yes, but how many would you lower to the ground? 215/35 R18 will fits. but not, if you to low to ground!

Thanks for your replies, well I orderd the BBS RC 336 and I am waiting for it to come , now I want to buy some lowering springs I was thinking 30mm or 35mm I dont know what do you prefer what is the better looking, I want to avoid using spacers; your advice is highly appreciated.

Hello,

oh lower springs are not so good as a coilovers. Especially with 18 inch rims! But in any case 30mm springs should fit without disks!

One question, where are you come from?

Thanks so 30mm is to be on the safe side & will it give me that nice sport look? do you recommend any brands H&R, etc... I am from Libya I will post pictures of the Polo Sedan as soon as I install the wheels and springs & I am very happy for the info I spent 1180 Euros on the BBS RC's and was scared that it might not fit but now its good so 30mm it is......excellent haha

[smithy]

Yes, it will be fits. Look at this page> http://www.polo9n.info/polo-1937.html He has a Polo 9n1 Limo, but he has remodeled the front in an 9N3!

H&R will be okay. A coil-over suspension but would be better for you. As you can the amount be adjusted precisely.

Thanks , I got an idea of how the saloon model looks on 18", but I dont agree so much of changing the front I think the old style is more classic , Mine is the brasil model 1.6 101PS Black I want to change the wheel to gti golf mk5 also do you know the part number for the arms not the blades for the aero wipers for the POLO, mine did not come with aero wipers so I want to change it if you can get me the part number for the arms for left and right that would be great or which model fits the polo....thank you I will post pics of the POLO soon when the RC's arrive

When I said wheel I meant like the driving wheel (steering)

hey, 205/35 R 18 runs also at the little engines until 80 horse powers, but not at polos with bigger engines because of the weight which is on the front wheels.

sorry for my english
