juzzo Hi volvo nuts does anyone know if these wheels will fill my 240 wagon how much work will be needed to guards to get them to fit
Vee_Que For that sort of money, you can have rims to suit made in a similar style. With re003 fitted and spare change!
ljk346 Had these custom made by a guy in QLD resently for just over a grand. Not as cool as Ferarri rims tho. 17x8 +0 offset 5x108 Offset was too low for the fronts, I got poke fitment now, so maybe a staggered setup would be best. +10 rear, +20 front? Centre bore was larger than 65.1 so they came with plastic rings to suit

ljk346 Poke fitment at front, fenders need more stretching, wheel needs camber to fit probably. +20 might fit better, just don't want to hit the suspension struts Rubbing the rear fenders, so maybe +10 offset would work better. 0 doesn't poke though, going to remove some fender lip to allow it to travel properly.
ljk346 They are only one peice rims by the way, and not that light either. Definetly form over function. Used http://www.willtheyfit.com to help with wheel specs. My stock volvo wheels were 14x5.5 +20 185/70R14 and I used a ruler to measure clearances from there. http://m.ebay.com.au/itm/17-BLANK-OS-FORMULA-MESH-ALLOY-WHEELS-suit-MOST-OLD-SCHOOL-CARS-FORD-HOLDEN-/221827184399?nav=WATCHING
jamesinc I think it's almost worth switching to adjustable trailing arms to get those rear wheels better centred.

ljk346 jamesinc;117558 wroteKaplhenke do, but they're way overkill. @AshDVS might know better They do however give you rear coilover options :) I'll hit @AshDVS also
