Default V70 rims on a 240

Hi,

I'm wondering if a pair of 5x108 V70 rims will fit on my 1990 Volvo 240 wagon? Anyone know this?

Thanks,

Craig

they will fit the bolt pattern, but they have the wrong offset, such that they will be about 1" too far 'in' towards the center of the car, where they quite likely will scrape things. you can use spacers to push them back out.

the RWD volvo 2x0/7x0/9x0 all use 20 to 25mm offset, while the FWD 850 and newer are 45mm (also, the final 960 update, aka v90/s90 also used the 45mm offset).
