Default 850 Rims Interchangable w/ 940 Wagon?

I have an opportunity to purchase a set of mounted snow tires off of a 93 940 Wagon. Will they fit on my 94 850 sedan?
Thank You....

I have seen people running 940 rims on an 850 but not sure if you will need spacers or not.

I would not recommend using that if you're just planning on putting them on and going.

keep in mind the offsets are different for a FWD car to a RWD car.

Tech's right though, you'd have to use spacers/longer wheel bolts.

Ask to buy just the tires and hunt down a set of 850 rims.

I tend to agree. You should be able to find a set of decent (and inexpensive) steel wheels to mount snows on at a local tire/wheel shop
