wow thats a big file....sorry bout that....if there are any i missed or repeated im sorry...any input is more than welcome.



EDIT: check out http://www.volvocars.se/salesandserv...FalgGenerator/ for a wheel generator that will help your most of your wheel decisions, and remember 5x108 is the bolt pattern for our cars, and members here make spacers for fwd>rwd wheel conversions.

edith again: ok i fixed some of the dead links and added a couple of wheels.

...and for those of use 4x100 PCD (3 series or 4 series volvo)

Evan Reisner's original 240 series factory wheel page (contains p/ns):
http://home.blarg.net/~volvo242gt/wheels.html

sweet thanks , now i've got to find a set of those titan or tritan. Dang never knew volvo had made some really good rim designs. Any info on offsets or rim sizes?

Nice work.

Missed peg's.

What's with the four bolt.. hmm, stellar?

There's a 14 that looks just like the dersus. Besides a smaller center cap..

And does omega actually count as a wheel/did they make a version of this as a wheel or hubcap only.. Aptly named though.

we need to update those with widths/diameters and offsets

also need pictures of (if i remember correctly these are missing)

- Polaris
- Early 242 GT wheels

I think these are the same wheel, and more commonly known as "Antilla"

also need a space between each image for clarity.
Moving to showroom for now, possibly to articles later.

you mispictured the comets

Right, that's Canisto pictured.

Looking good so far...id like to add my alloys please...18x8" cappella (from S80T6)



Griz

also the "nova" is actually called a sirius as i understand it...

i want some mimas

Those are pretty bitchin wheels Griz.

They look good on the old 945 as well :-D
Griz

1st generation S40

I didn't see the wheels that are on my wife's 940SE... Anybody know what they're called?

yes, he doesn't have a picture of nova on there.

this is from ebay so in a few month's it may disappear so someone needs to get a better picture but these are nova

Polaris on Top. Eiker on bottom.

I know where you live...:badboy:

man volvo has a greek mythology fetish.

the only volvo to my knowledge with a 21mm lug too, no wonder they call it the bastard child.

ok awesome!!!!

ill try to get some work done to it (sizes/offset, years/models, correct pic with name) when i get home from work tomorrow morning.....

as usual ANY input is MORE than welcome!!!

we will all have to chip in to get this guide looking stellar!

the only definite tomorrow morning is some sort of order....heres where i need all of your help....should i go alpha (easier) or model/year or size, or what?

WOW, great work!

There's Perfo (16") as well:

Not my car, can't post one of mine until I get my ftp login working right again. I also have the "The choice is yours" poster showing all Volvo FWD/AWD wheels, I can try to post that as well.
