Just want to reiterate the awesome-ness of this thread - very helpful! Volvo really has made some wonderful rims.

[MobBarley]

[gear whine]

in the 1st list. does anyone know what size the tire is mounted on that gemini??????
any info or pictures of other geminis with tires is MUCH APPRECIATED.
thank you.

[Bocephus]

Anyone have some pics of Pegs? I know that's Volvo blasphemy, but I've got a good idea of what they look like. Are they the huge 5-spokes you see on a lot of V70R's?

ookay, someone tell me what those are! weird old school alloy 264 rims, i need the name!

[WheyDey]

i remember a few of those on r-sport exculsive cars. so maybe its a factory r-sport option? i dont even think they have a name.

edith: its been a while since i saw my name under this post in the forum, lol.

[WheyDey]

edith #2: they dont have a name and they arent r-sport, they are 260 specific. your volvo part number is # 12229360
and they are 14X (god this is stretching it now) 5.5? 6?"

240 Turbo Wheel, polished German Virgo Part # 1272356 ,15x6x20 ,@ 17.5 Lb



Remember you MUST mount tires on Virgos with the wheels upside down,as the drop for the tire bead is at the back of the rim to create the lip.
The wheel machine will stall,and bend the wheel if it is not inverted.
The tire changing machine with the rim clamp claws that hold the wheel is best because the 5 spokes of the wheel will be in conflict with the 4 expanding pads,and the spokes will likely be damaged.

Two types of 700 center covers.
The short prong ones only fit on the 15 spoke V6 Bertone wheels.
The tall prong covers fit the 10 spoke, Multi X and some other 700 alloys.

[TheJoyOfSix]

Multi-X are 15x7x20.

And those are the pre 1979 262C alloys.

[flynn]

I have Omegas on my 760, but I'm thinking about swapping on Tritons... What do you think?

Oh... and I think Titans are the sexiest wheels ever produced by Volvo. They'd be my #1 pick if they looked anything CLOSE to good on 760s...

[WheyDey]

if you can find 'em -go for it!

Those are the factory rims my car came with!!! so they were on '76 244 GL's here. I have 10 of them in my shed in immaculate condition, and 1 in my boot with the original spare tire!!

they are 14x5.5 and are VERY lightweight wheels, and are very strong, almost impossible to buckle.

[WheyDey]

sizes and stuff are still in the works.
