Default Cracked rim

I have a 1996 Volvo 850 and cracked the right front rim. I was wondering could anyone tell me if a 1997 rim would fit my vehicle. I have found one that is quite far from my home and want to make sure it fits before I make the trip. I had the rim welded and the tire is leaking air again around the crack. Thanks. And yeah the vehicle is a Volvo 850 its just a later year.

Yes. Only wheels from a 93 won't fit.

94-97s all use the five bolt "Cetus" wheel as the most common 15 inch rim. I can send you one (for a fee) - was going to do a full sized spare but never mounted a tire... google volvo cetus to see pics of the style.

You welded the rim and kept driving on it? You sure live up to your name.
