Hey guys, I am looking for a set of 16" wheels for my 97 850. I just bought the car and it came with 15" wheels and 195/55 tires on it. The sticker inside the gas cap is calling for 205/55R16. Having these smaller wheels & tires is making my odometer roll over faster than it should. If you have a set, let me know!

I have two 16" wheels from a 95 850 Turbo if you are interested in putting a set together.

Check out the Genuine Volvo Wheels Bulletin dated 2002 which lists all the Volvo wheels made up through Year 2000......good reference source for finding what wheels will fit on which Volvo Model/Years: http://ostroff.org/volvo/alloy_wheels.pdf (http://ostroff.org/volvo/alloy_wheels.pdf)
Also, there are several online wheels stores which have re-manufactured Volvo OEM wheels for sale at a significant price reduction from new ones. I just ordered a set of re-manufactured Volvo Hydra 16 inch alloy wheels from http://www.wheelsamerica.com (http://www.wheelsamerica.com/) for $131 each with free shipping and warranty and new ones from my Volvo dealer and other online wheel sites were $295 - $324. Just enter your vehicle year/model on the Wheels America Website to see if they have your re-manufactured wheel available. If they don't you can also Google "Volvo Wheels" to find other online dealers who sell re-manufactured OEM wheels for all make vehicles. eBay Motors, Parts & Accessories, Volvo Wheels search, also produces various eBay Stores that sell re-manufactured wheels which, for the wheel I wanted, weren't as good a deal as I found at Wheels America.......but you need to check what the new price of your Volvo wheel is from the Dealer and other online Volvo parts stores first (e.g. http://www.vlvworld.com/ (http://www.vlvworld.com/) ), and then compare that with the various remanufactured prices are. On eBay, I found some re-manufactured sites that priced their wheels for almost what a new one would be from my Volvo dealer. But, I'm sure you can find a re-manufactured or even a used wheel matching your existing vehicle wheels for a good deal.......good luck!
