Frequently asked questions: wheels for the Volkswagen Polo GTI (6R)

What are the original offsets for the wheels of a Volkswagen Polo GTI 6R?

According to its Swiss vehicle type records, the same wheel on all four corners: 7J x 17 with an offset of 46; for the 132 kW GTI, the records also permit 7J x 16 with the same offset. [4, 15]

Which tyres, and which load index, does a Volkswagen Polo GTI 6R take?

215/40 R17 with a load index of 87, i.e. 545 kg per tyre, on all four wheels; in 16 inches, 215/45 R16 with an index of 86, i.e. 530 kg. [4, 15, 27, 28]

What is the load per wheel on a Volkswagen Polo GTI 6R?

Its Swiss vehicle type records give a permissible load of 930 kg on the front axle of the 132 kW GTI and 960 kg on that of the 141 kW GTI, i.e. 465 and 480 kg per wheel, and 800 kg on the rear axle, i.e. 400 kg per wheel. The 215/40 R17 tyre with a load index of 87 carries 545 kg. [4, 15, 27, 28]

What PCD, centre bore and bolts does a Volkswagen Polo GTI 6R use?

The PCD is 5x100, the centre bore 57.1 mm, and the wheels are held by M14 x 1.5 wheel bolts, according to koleso.ee and SCC. The tightening torque is not published: the sources read do not agree. [1, 2, 3]

Custom forged wheels for the Volkswagen Polo GTI (6R)

  • Forged 6061-T6 aluminium
  • 5-axis CNC machining
  • Designed to JWL/VIA standards
  • Fitment worked out for your Volkswagen Polo GTI (6R)

Volkswagen Polo GTI 6R: 5x100, a 57.1 mm hub, M14 x 1.5 bolts

The fifth-generation Volkswagen Polo GTI (type 6R), as the 132 kW 1.4 TSI and then the 141 kW 1.8 TSI, whose first Swiss vehicle type record dates from May 2010, is 5x100 on a 57.1 mm hub, with M14 x 1.5 wheel bolts: koleso.ee and SCC give these measurements, each cited in the table. The two sources do not give the same tightening torque: we do not publish it. The Polo GTI AW that succeeds it has its own page.

16 and 17 inches, on all four wheels

The vehicle type record of the Swiss Federal Roads Office (ASTRA), the document that sets the tyre and wheel combinations a car may carry, permits a 7J wheel on all four wheels for the Polo GTI 6R, with an offset of 46: in 17 inches with 215/40 R17 tyres for both engines, and also in 16 inches with 215/45 R16 tyres for the 132 kW GTI. For the 141 kW GTI, the record permits a wider wheel, but only with wheel arch extensions: it is not included here.

The load the wheel must carry

Its records give a permissible load of 930 kg on the front axle of the 132 kW GTI and 960 kg on that of the 141 kW GTI, i.e. 465 and 480 kg per wheel, and 800 kg on the rear axle, i.e. 400 kg per wheel. The tyre keeps at least the load index of the original fitment, 87 for 215/40 R17 and 86 for 215/45 R16 (reading a tyre). The braking system limits the smallest possible wheel diameter: the guide wheels and brakes explains why.

What these measurements say about a forged wheel

The offset positions the wheel in the wheel arch: a wider wheel, or a lower offset, brings it closer to the wing. The Onyx Forged design office starts from the measurements on this page, your brakes and your tyres to calculate the width and offset of your wheels, then submits them to you. The offset calculator compares two fitments: it compares, it does not choose the measurement for you.

Roadworthiness test: what is examined

The French roadworthiness test (contrôle technique) examines the wheel without removing it (cracks, deformation, a wheel that protrudes beyond the bodywork) and verifies that the tyre size is one provided for by the manufacturer or accepted as equivalent. Keeping a tyre size from the original fitment, and at least its load index, avoids having to justify it; the details are on the roadworthiness test and registration page.

What we record before machining

Configure your forged wheels for the Volkswagen Polo GTI (6R)

The Onyx Forged design office works out the measurements of your car from its exact version, stated on the registration document, and shows them to you before machining. Each set is cut from forged 6061-T6 aluminium, machined on a 5-axis CNC centre, as monoblock, two-piece or three-piece wheels; our wheels are designed to JWL/VIA standards. Prices by diameter and the lead time are given on this page, under “What Onyx can make”. Start your configuration or write to contact@onyxforgedwheels.com.
