Pictures of your 850 alloys

[Saaamon]

After some wheels for my t5, currently having an r bumper and rear spoiler painted so need a nice set of volvo wheels to go with it. I dont like really small profile tyres so believe that means sticking to 17"s? At the moment i quite like the idea of pegs but would like to see pictures of other wheels on your cars?

Cheers.

I know, but you can still get an idea of the wheel design even if it is an inch bigger ;)

[Saaamon]

Only reason I'm after 17's is because someone told me you had to run 35 profile tyres which is way to small but the tyres on the wheels pictured look fine.

17's on the wife's, 215/45

17'' TD ProRace 1.2's with KW coilovers. Never liked these wheels until I got a set. I personally wouldn't go bigger than 17'' nowadays in my old age!

18'' Genuine Pegasus many many years ago. This was running KW's as well.

Bottom left in signature are genuine 17'' Pegasus running slicks.

Pete, I love those wheels! perfect match to the car.

.....for comparison! The polaris are RWD wheels with much smaller offset (meaning they poke out more). The 850 has lowered suspension from new (lower than std T5R) and also has rolled inner arches with trimmed arch liners....all done & setup (incl. wheels) by Volvo dealer from new! Unfortunately they won't go over the AP brakes on my V70 now even with 5mm spacers and hub extensions...in any case with spacers the wheels would be 5mm outside the arch (pic shown is minus spacers when the car had std brakes)!

Not sure what they came off but I'm sure they are of a V70 (R maybe?)

Comets for the win!
