i have 185/60 and 185/65 floating around. 3 of each for some reason.
would the higher ones be better on front or back ?
as in using them as pairs. 2 x 65 and 2 x 60

Personally, even if they do fit I wouldn't use either size. 185/65 are balloons in Polo land, and 60's aren't much better.
185/50/14's give the correct rolling radius.

Ok cheers, trying to keep the cost down I would rather use what I have for now and if I have to replace then go down that road of getting the right tyres.

I have had them on the car before and they didnt seem to.
my arches have been rolled and have coilovers.
