My 940's..

[jks]

No, 3SDM's are 5x120, on pcd adaptors I made.
Arches on red one have been pulled out loads. Can't remember what offset works out as, with pcd adaptors..it's very little..

Loving the wheels on both cars! I was nearly tempted to buy some azev's on ebay a while back. But they were 7.5 wide front and back, i wanted the staggered fitment like yours, look nice with the deep dish!! Are the 3sdm's the same offset??

[T5frankie]

i have bought 8" wide wheels with 850 fitment, with 7/940 spacers to convert from H&R and they just fit

[jks]

What You meen, just fit?
Shurely, you can go wider and less offset, on 700?

My 8in fwd Volvo bbs rims fit easy and plenty of room too

maybe but not with 850 fitment

? But You have "adapted them" with spacers, there not 850 fittment any more..

just saying what i have bought and with the car right in front of me, you cant go any wider with 850 wheels

It's the offset of the wheels you change with the spacers to go wider .i could get 9s or even 10s on the back and 9s on the front .but I'm happy with the 8s though

With std springs, which limits the front wheel width, you can run 8,5-9 fronts, rear you can run 12, with right offset.
With coilovers on front, I recon you can run 10's, with right offset.
On a 940, arches can be rolled and pulled out quite a bit, with out being obvious..

Bought another cam and chips, so power levels will be going up..
Better clutch needed!
One Volvo "dogdish" flywheel, 228mm clutch

Add a lathe,

Flat flywheel! Not takes 240mm 850r clutch,

Il be using 850r disc, mated to Sachs MRE 707 pressure plate..
SORTED!

[Plodmonkey]

Can't wait for my c70 to go and but a 740

[Plodmonkey]

That was meant to say Can't wait for my c70 so I can buy a 940

740's are better lol

I've found most of mine, on eBay, where the discribtion has been wrong or no pcd stated..
There's some about, just need some digging..
On split rims, as long as pcd is right, by swapping barrels and lips, you can make offset to anything you want..

[tobya]

A cheaper option is banding steel rims (which I'm planning on): you can get whatever width and offset you want.
(I realise steelies aren't everyone's cup of tea though.)

Wow. HX40 @ 2.5bar will be in the 500bhp bracket. Fantastic cars both of them.
