I finally bought new wheels and tires for my V70. The wheels are Elbrus i05's from Tire Rack and the tires are 235/40/18 Kumho Ecsta 4X. It rides and drives really nice. Very please with the way it turned out. What do you all think?

 

Looks real good. That car is WHITE!!! Seems like a little color in the hubs would be nice. Maybe the Volvo symbol or a iPD logo.

 

Hello, I was thinking the same thing. You can't use any other company's logo because one of the spokes already has the name "Elbrus" cast in. Perhaps have the name filled in at a wheel repair shop and have the 10 spoker powder coated in white! and of course, add wide white wall tires. It's a great looking car as it is. Kira

 

Very nice. Hope the brake dust does not get out of hand on the front wheels like my 2004 V70. They constantly gets filthy and impossible to clean! TireRack.com is a great site and I always go there to check out the latest tires/ratings. Currently have Michelin Primacy MXV on my 2.5T. Great tires, but pricey. Since they will need replacing soon I will check out the Kuhmos.

 

Great looking wheels and tires. Excellent!

Do the new wheels cause any speedometer adjustment?

 

Thanks guys. @Tony8330- No issues at all. @Christine's V70 - I used to have a ton of brake dust with the factory pads, but since I switched to ceramic pads I have minimal dust. I was going to get the Kumho LX Platinum's since they have a 600 treadwear rating, but decided on the 4X after reading TireRack's comparison test results.

 

Stunning! Beautiful car!

 

Looking Good!
