bought these off fellow forum member two weeks ago. collected them from my local alloy refurber. cost me £150 for refurb then £30 to fit tyres. they have been sand blasted and powder coated. unsure if were acid diped or not. took a risk with the colour but i think its paid off. just need the rear suspension to selltle a bit and i might get some spacer made to.

Very nice :D

Kind of makes me wish I'd kept them, but TBH they look better on your car than they probably would have on mine.

Good call on the colour.

Well what can I say, I dont agree with R alloys on a non R haha but they do look very good on your car!!!, Volvo should have made the R with that colour option.

They look really well. £150 seems to be a good price, I take it that was your trade connection. I am looking around for a good refurbers in and around the Stockport area if anyone knows of anywhere suitable.

The car looks beautiful mate.....any idea what spacers you were thinking about?

I've been looking at the hub centric Eibach spacers, but unsure what sizes to go front and rear. Would love to see some before/after pics of some fitted to an S60.
