1996 Volvo 850 AWD.......for FREE!!
Admittedly it is for a short period whilst my cousins V70 is out of action, but hey.
Lookin good and the car feels better with them on apart from a humming noise around 30mph which is getting on my tits.

Thanked 2,582 Times in 2,051 PostsThey're running kumho 225/25 I think.
Another problem I just thought of is that they've got the 'R' emblem on the wheel, and mine is not an R (far from it), was saying the other day on another threadI don't like badging things up to what they're not1996 Olive Green 850 AWD - Follow the Project - Forged rods, 19T, big blue injectors, 960 TB, 3.25" MAF, Ostrich, 608 binary, arduino data display, active exhaust control with Focus RS tips, 320mm front brake conversion.

Thanked 2,582 Times in 2,051 PostsThink I'm getting mixed up with the width, they could be 40 or 45s lol. Will have a look in a bit.
When my cousin first got the car it was running 215/35, looked like elastic bands (and really stupid).
There is one other thing, they have the R emblem, and my awd is far from being one, I feel its badging it to be something its not.Last edited by Dangerous Dave; Tuesday 14th September 2010 at 00:52.
