you will have to check the bore diameter is correct (afaik up to 2000 is 67.1) an i think( but not 100%) the offset should be 35 to 38. not sure about post 2000 tho...sorry

Spot on bonus :)

Alloy Guide Linky (http://www.alloyguide.com/Volvo.php)

This shows the info for up to 2000 s40

My BBS wheels came with spacer rings for the bore however so I had no issues fitting them to mine.

iv a feeling they wont as mine is a 2001! iv emailed the seller but no reply yet

cant seem to find much for a 2001 as most thing only go up to a 2000 car

As far as I know there was no change from 2000 - 2001 although please do no quote me on that one.

In fact...according to this (http://s40concepts.net/forum/index.php?t=msg&th=10674&start=0&rid=831&S=5ad5815bf8ea9b538e9e4d06c4605e48) link there is no change at all.
Awesome site for all things 40 related :)

The S40/V40 range from 96-04 was 4x114 ignore the point they say only up to 2000.

I bought wheels for my 01 T4 and they were 4x114.3.

Thats all you need to bother about so you can get any 4x114 wheels

17"s and 18's

although the 17"s are for everyday. Bought some Raceline RL7 wheels but still not convinced.

You would most likely need 5mm spacers.

I am currently running some 18's and there is no issues with rubbing or anything if that is what you are concerned about?

Word to the wise..... Evo 1 -3 also run 4 x 114 so there are plenty of bargains to be had off the Evo sites :)
(where I got my 18's from) lol

so they prob would fit with 5mm spacers? i love the alloys with the et45 fitment

when i had 18''s on my bmw with low profile tyres i felt every bump!

going to look at evo sites, thanks for the tip enigma
