Who was it said you couldnt get a T5 with fifteens?

Well here's one.

from the factory you can't, its had the wheels swop for some reason

PS how on earth do you get away with that number plate lol

How can that be? I tried to put my 850 T5 alloys on my V70 T5 and they wouldnt fit over the front caliper, surely a 15" wheel wont fit?

Bigger brakes on the later model V70's & deffo for the P2's, minimum fit is 16".

Probably will fit your rear wheels, but not the front as it would foul on the larger calipers.

p.s. they look like 16"s to me!

some V70's came with 302mm brakes which your right 850 T-5 rims won't fit, but other V70's came with 280mm which will allow most wheels to go on

Think mines 99 on V-reg, brakes are defo much larger than my 850, although they dont seem any better than that was, plus without decent pads they fade very quickly.

there doesn't seem to be a pattern to which C/S/V70's came with either 280 or 302's, it only seems the S/V70R's were guaranteed the 302's. Everything else seemed to be whichever they picked out the basket first

all 850's had 280's, except some police spec cars which needed to have the S/V70 16's to make them fit
