You're a gent Martyn, many thanks. I will stop bothering you now! Sent Turiff tyres an email will update with the answer.

I can call them if you want?

[Nick0]

Jeepers that must be asking too much?! - I am in South West London so I wonder if I should be looking nearer to home I expect delivery costs will be high?

[volvokid]

So I would have to wait?

[volvokid]

Yeah they don't know when they will get them, eBay will have but I don't know if they're the same

I have a spare set of Genuine 18"s that I am thinking of selling. Give me a day or so to work it out. Wouldn't cost much different to the replicas you are looking at, I'd think.

They wont need spacers but if its an s60r you will need the spigots.They should be supplied with the wheels.Trust me if you go far over the ton(private road of course)the car will feel like its got square wheels.The vibration is very strong.I fitted spigot rings and had no issues since.They are` fit and forget`.All a spigot ring does is centre the wheel on the hub.

After more than five years on the r i'v never fitted or needed any spacers or spigots.
Where were your wheels made ?

Ebay jobbies.Made in Germany if I remember right.The original(volvo) wheels were fine but the replicas needed spigots.

Hi just got a set of Volvo Pegasus 18 genuine wheels with the new wheel centres fitted £630 for 4 still boxed volvo main dealer.

Genuine 18'' Pegasus in anthracite from Volvo Houston back in 2003 were just over £100 each and we didn't pay any tax carriage was very reasonable as we bought 10 and they were palletised.

Thanks for all the replies chaps. My car is an S60R - Do I take it then that these are not quite the same spec as the original 18 inch wheels and would need spacers, or would they fit straight on?

The car has an assortment of tyres on it (that it had on it when I bought it last October) and also the wheels are all slightly kerbed so I this looked like a good way to solve the problem of paying for refurb of the wheels and getting the tyres replaced.

Anyone got any pics of what they look like?

Hello mate, I have a set of 19" peg reps that I bought off eBay from the same company in Liverpool. They will need the spigot rings but they come supplied. Just check the size when you get them. Inside they should say 65.1 and on the outside 67.1 I paid 150 extra for Avon tyres from them and must say they are very good and seem to have very low road noise. I didn't need spacers and there is no rubbing whatsoever even on full lock. If you do get any rubbing check the steering stops.

Hope this helps
