Default Will these wheels fit?

I have a 95 940 Turbo Wagon. About time for some new tires and thinking maybe going a little bigger. Would these work on my car? Here is the description:

Factory Volvo wheels for a '96 960. These fit '95-'98 960's. Also correct offset for front/all wheel drive Volvo's up to at least 2000 model year. I changed the wheels on my 960 so these are for sale. Wheels in good shape and come with shown center caps. Size is 6.5 x 16 x 43. 6.5 width, 16" wheel, 43 mm offset

no, they won't fit right. the 940 has the traditional RWD offset, while the facelifted 95+ 960's have the FWD offset.

I put 16's (Hydras) on my 740 t-wagon and find they harsh the ride a fair bit.

Why? 960's are RWD.

they are, but when they facelifted the 960s, they switched the suspension around so they used the same offset wheels as the new 850's.

Thanks. Will probably stick to the 15's I have on now.

Cool Rim Help

I often use Bolt Pattern Guide Database RimHelp.com it should have the info you need just compare your offset to the offsets of the vehicle you want the rims from nd you may be able to find wheels you like off other brands that will do the trick.
