Just got me some 16x9.5 salad shooters I was wondering if anyone knows what wide adapters I need? I what tires do you guys recommend for my 85 volvo 244 dl.. tHanks in advance



 
25mm 5x108 to 5x4.75 (5x120.7?) wheel adapters

At least thats what ive gotten from what I've read
 
For stretch, you could run 205/55r16 or 195/55r16. For a good, properly sized tire, I would recommend a 215/55r16 or a 225/55r16. These diameters are all close enough to the stock tire size (195/74r14) that they won't throw off your speedo too much. I did the math and then double checked with this tool: https://tiresize.com/comparison/. It's a great site and it shows the difference in width, height, and change in actual speed vs displayed speed.

Thanks alot for the help man appreciate it
 
Those wheels on a 25mm thick adapter with a 215 absolutely WILL rub in the rear on a stock suspension car with untouched fenders, on the slightest bumps. Ask me how I know.
 
So I ordered 205 45 16 they should be here next week or so and spacers as well let's see if they work I'll post pics when I get the tires on thanks everyone for the help
