I've got a 2001 1.6 Golf auto that currently runs on standard 175/80 R14 steelies. Would quite like to get some alloys for it, preferably OEM or OEM looking but the challenge here is I've just had 4 x brand new Firestones fitted so would like to transfer the tyres from the steel wheel to the new alloys.

Anyone got any recommendations or links to my alloy choices? Would Mk4 Polo GTi wheels fit for instance?
 
Are you sure they a 14 and not 15's?

My first car was a MK4 1.6 SE and it came with steelies... but my dad being him wanted alloys, but wanted them to also give the steelies as they didnt discount the price of the alloys buying new.

So they swapped the tyres from the steelies to the alloys.. which were some 5 spoke things.. looks quite nice.

pretty sure you are on 5x100 pcd ? polo are 4x100 so no go there plus gti alloys would be 16inch .
maybe look on ebay for suitable 16's/17,s already tyred up ?
 
Prob not what you want to see or hear... but i have always liked the original montreal GTI-turbo wheels:

Ooh I like those! My new set of tyres probably wouldn't fit them though I guess.

Going by tyre size so assuming they're 14s. New tyres I bought and had fitted 3 weeks ago are Firestone F580 175/80 R14 H (88)
