[boostdemon]

those specific ones have been widened. they basically cut the ends off and weld in a new ring between the wheel and the lip.

There's a set of polaris wheels up at my dealership parts place I noticed today when I stopped in (5 minutes after they closed lol).

Gotta run up there on monday...maybe I'll ask to be shocked!

[Two245Turbos]

I do want a different look to the 245Ti....I'll just have to keep looking...I also want to put a rear spoiler on it ....http://image1ex.villagephotos.com/1782946.jpg

if you want a new lok for cheap, it's my estimation that those wheels would look approximately 12,856,921 times better painted some other color than gold.
just me... lookin good otherwise...

[Two245Turbos]

Yea! I know, but this car is 100% stock...Including the gold package...I don't know if I want to restore it or hook it up custom..

[Captain Bondo]

well, either way...
10 bucks worth of silver paint and an afternoon would work wonders until you decide...

[capthook]

Please. Paint them. :eek: I think silver really matches the car's overall style anyway :wink: As far as keeping it 'original', you might want to take those off - hide; I mean save them, and ride on something else. Other than that, clean wagon man - A +.

Gold package???????

wtf???? Volvo never offer any gold pacakge back in the days.

not even today.

[Captain Bondo]

Ya some dealers did. I have seen a few cars optioned like that. i alsmot bought an '83 245t with the same setup but it was black and had gold pinstripes too. hee hee.

Doug,
If you are talking about the single wheel they have in the window at Winter, it's the dealer owners spare for his set on his personal car. I already asked. :wink:

Isn't it more likely that the owner bought a wider lip since those are multi-piece wheels?

[Hank Scorpio]

lol...damn it. I wonder how bad just one is? heheh
