Alright peeps, these are the wheels from my van and debating whether to bung on the volvo, I love them but not sure if they suit it really and would need to buy lower profile tyres to fit on, what does everyone think ?

They are basically a modern interpretation of the old ronal turbo's and when i brought them a year ago they were the only set in the country in a 5 x 108 !

What Steve said with another Nooooooooooooooooooooo added
Stick with the Canisto`s, Volvo`s are made in Sweden not Dagenham
Nice car though :smile:

Sorry but they just make a joke out of an already good looking car.. Just being brutally honest..

Blimey - they always have been a marmite wheel :) I was expecting a divided response - hence the thread title !!
anyway would it be any different if I made them look like this (as they are basically the same wheel under the black, the lettering and the diamond cutting)

Funnily enough I may actually end up selling them if I spend too much cash on the C70
what they look like on the van:

Don't look too bad on the van but I think the black and white contrast is the key with that.. There are better wheels available for the C70 and I don't think changing the look of those wheels will help much tbh..

I think the OZ's would look spot on on a Saloon but dont suit the coupe
Any wheel suggestions for the coupe ?????? (obviously I like to be a bit different from the crowd !)
