Use the registration lookup for the most accurate match, or read the tyre size from the sidewall (for example 195/55 R16). Always confirm the load index and speed rating meet or exceed the manufacturer recommendation.

Yes. A reg search is designed to return tyres that fit your specific Polo variant. If your wheels have been changed from standard, use the manual tyre size search instead.

205 is the tyre width in mm, 45 is the profile (sidewall height as a percentage of width), R17 is the wheel diameter in inches, 88 is the load index, and V is the speed rating. Matching these helps maintain correct fit and performance.

It is possible, but it is usually better to replace tyres in pairs on the same axle so tread depth and grip are consistent. Mixing different tread patterns or types (summer, winter, all-season) on the same axle can affect stability and braking.

You choose a nearby fitting centre and an available time during checkout. On the day, the garage fits and balances the tyres and typically disposes of the old ones; any extras like alignment or new valves may be offered depending on the fitter.
