**Jamest5r** · Sunday 10th July 2011, 17:03

In silver im going to have to say no sorry but they might work in a darker colour

**claymore** · Sunday 10th July 2011, 17:07

Not feeling them I'm afraid, but then I have no taste

**t5_monkey** · Sunday 10th July 2011, 17:08

yes.... but dark silver or shadow chrome would suit the car better IMHO.

i havent got a clue what they are called lol all i know is they came off a 2004 V70 T5 need to get some different tyres for the front tho probably 205/45/17s

Silver is the best colour the others just wish they had silver wheels

**AndysR** · Sunday 10th July 2011, 22:34

They look ok, although I have to agree with the others and say a light antracite would suit it better... That said I don't think it looks bad with them in silver.

What are the drop on those springs? Still looks pretty high.

35-40mm

Sits just right if you ask me, the wheels sit in perfect symetry with the arches.

I need to get some non saloon springs for mine so as the back end doesnt sit on the floor when towing.

like the look , everyones goin for dark wheels , not likein the black wheel option now days unless neon rim tape is included , but then yer got to do calipers to match !!!!!
silver is the new black ;-)

I like them on a lowered car, but not on a arse in the air V70 P2.

i think it looks spot on mate.
Looks just right at that height too.

**donny** · Friday 15th July 2011, 16:39

i think they look good on your car,makes a change to see a lighter coloured wheel and for the hight it sits nice on the road not to low.

looks good (better in the flesh) i have seen it a few times now. were did you get the springs from as i am thinking that mine needs to be lower. (but dont like the fact that as i pull out my driveway there is not much gap between the bumper and the slope to the road, will cross that bridge later) Do you get much rubbing from them wheels, i have 225/45's on my 17's and they rub on full lock. Was thinking of going down to 215 or maybe 205. Was unsure how this would effect the speedo tho.
