Default Are these original Volvo Wheels?

Hi,
When I bought my 1993 Volvo 240 wagon - it had these wheels on it. We took them off to mount snows - but I am curious about them.

Are they an official volvo accessory? Do they have a name? I think they are alloy wheels - they are 15" size.

I think they look nice... but they might be worth more than my car?

Yea, they do look pretty good IMO. I rock Coronas on my 245...they're very light, almost indestructable, and so very hard to clean. I could be wrong, but I think Volvo originally introduced them on the 262c(late `70s maybe?)...so they've been around for a while. But nowadays they can be a had for ~$25/wheel if you look hard enough...and I'm sure your `93 is worth more than that.
