They look Awesome.
Not sure if they will fit or tire size. A tire shop should be able to help you with all the specs.

Im not a big fan on chrome wheels, I think alloys have a tighter look to them...

make sure they don't rub when you turn the wheel. I have 17's they rub when you make a sharp turn. Nothing like that grinding noise [:@]

Go to www.tirerack.com and you can search by your current wheel size. You can also search by your car and they will show a side view of your car and every wheel you wanna see it will put on the car and you can see how it looks. I wouldn't go more than an inch bigger on an S80 because the wheel wells are shallow enough for the stock 16's. 17's would be the max. If you decide to drop the car an inch or two AND get bigger wheels, get lower profile tires to reduce the grinding...Also I wouldn't reccomend going any wider. (Mine are 7" wide.)
