Hi

I'm in the UK modding a 1970 P1800 and currently struggling to find many wheels in the right fitment.

I'm looking for a 17x7 or 7.5J, 5x108 ET10-20 wheel.

Any recommendations?

Cheers.
 
You will find a lot more wheels if you're willing to use spacers, that's what I did for my 122. 20 or 25 mm puts you right in all the FWD offset range.

Thanks.
Yeah appreciate that, am just trying to avoid spacers if I can.
Can find a few ET30 wheels. Need to test fit them really and take it from there...

:nono: 1970 1800s use 140 offset.

40et or 43et aka most Volvo WWD wheels.

That's odd, because I have a 1972 1800 suspension in my 122 and it's identical to the 66 122 suspension offset (which should be identical to the 66 1800 offset). I needed spacers to run FWD wheels anywhere close to the fender.
