I bought this car with 235-45-17 tires, yes, there is a little rubbing while turning but, its OK. This summer I bought 4 Volvo 16 inch rims for my winter tires - as per Volvo recommendation. Installed 205-55-16 winter tires. Put them on and....the wheels are sticking out way too much, mirrors are sprayed by a mud from front wheels! Even steering is difficult. Well - its my fault - didn't check before I had bought them. Now I want to sell that set of wheels with winter tires, or buy the proper rims. My question is what is the proper size of 16 inch rims for my Volvo? What Volvo fits my winter wheels?
thanks

 

Your issue may not be the rim width but the offset of the rim.

You should be looking for a 40mm offset. It should be stamped on the back of the rim. So if you are looking at aftermarket rims check Tire Rack. It will have all the info you need. They also mention back spacing.
