Just goes to show how a good set of wheels improve a cars looks

[t5 pete]

Well decided to put the wheels of the c70 onto my dads v70 t5 and what a improvement they make over the standard t5 wheels.

looks great,

[volvokid]

Looks very good, wheels make or break a car

[foammanmark]

Looking good there.

[AndysR]

Lets face it the Comets are the best standard wheel you can get for a 70, and there is a very good reason for it too :)

[V70 Graham]

Very nice wheels, really finishes the car off.

[LiamT4]

Looks good.

Shame they never did comets in 18".

I know that's what I think

I'v not seen any replicas or similar wheels in 18s either.

You can get 19's which look very similar... ;)

Pics?

Although I prefer 18s on the S/V70s.

None to hand but...

The 2008 Volvo V70 had some nice 18's which are very similar in design to the Comets and I think would make a great upgrade for someone in the market for an 18" alloy.

Looks like someone had the same idea...

Although I think they would look better in anthracite tbh..

There is also the Fortuna 18" which I think is a perfect 18" wheel upgrade for an 850R which would usually have the Volans fitted :)

those wheels on the s70 look the tits

[LiamT4]

They are nice, shame the spokes aren't a bit thinner though.

[AndysR]

those wheels on the s70 look the tits

Genuine Volvo too ;)

[AndysR]

That's why I think they'd look better in the Anthracite colour as they would look a touch smaller I am sure ;)

[volvokid]

I might get these but 18" ones

[AndysR]

I might get these but 18" ones

They are 18's ;)

[t5 pete]

I might get these but 18" ones

Me too i was going to get a set of pegs for the saffy but after seeing these i know what im getting just got to find some now

[volvokid]

I think there only available from ipd and tbh I don't want to give them anymore of my money there costumer care doesn't exist

[t5 pete]

were they only for the U.S. market?

[volvokid]

They are 18's ;)

They look huge on there

[AndysR]

If we're talking about the wheels on the S70 then they are available on UK V70's as well so no need to go to IPD for them ;)

[AndysR]

They look huge on there

Tell me about it, although I think the smaller arches of the older cars and a lower profile tyre help with that slightly ;)

[Wobbly Dave]

comets are still one of my favourite wheel styles.

[t5_monkey]

looks proper smart :)

[The Flying Moose]

Looks fantastic Pete... does this mean your going to have a hard time trying to get the, back from him!!!

Very true mate, I take it this means your braking up the C70? Lots of good parts on that mate with the zaust, FSD's etc. Its a shame after all the effort getting it right though.

Lol he's got the zorst aswell (some people get everthing ) yeah its a total shame but all the new parts on it will fit the other 3 v70's we have
