    Alloys

    HI all just wondering what other volvo alloys would fit mine.
    Have a 1996 855r with 17inch volans on it.

    But i have a couple of probs

    1 Dont have a spare wheel for car so everytime get a puncture its a pain
    2 Roads around where i live are full of potholes and the volans are taking a hamering.

    So was thinking about putting a set of 16 inch wheels with bigger tyres on for the winter and putting the volans away for the time being.

    So was just wondering what alloys off a newer volvo would fit.

    If it's just for the winter, get some steelies from a scrappy and put some nice ripspeed trims on them (cough chavvy but cheap cough)

    Hmm, didn't spot where you were at first. Not sure how I would go about shipping something of that size/weight?
