Default corvette rims on volvo?

I was wondering if theres anyway i can put 80's corvette turbine rims on a 2005 s40 or if anyone has seen it before. Of coarse the bolt patterns different but im sure theres a 5x108 to 5x120 out there some where. My issue is clearence does anybody know the widest rim you can fit on a s40?, i know the turbine rims are 9.5 wide. Theres a guy around me who has got a set on a 04 jetta and they look sick i figure jettas can be that much bigger than a volvo(i used to own one). ive also seen them on bmws and hondas.
thanks,
Wes

As far as I know you will need to have an adapter specially made. There is a guy near me running some on a C30.
Here is a pic of them on the front.
