Default rims for 99 s70 t5

I was planning on taking the stock 16" rims off and getting some 17" rims for my S70 T5, does anyone have some on there car now and have any problems? Any insight would be great thanks!!

Also Please post pictures of your car if you have some.

Shouldn't have any problems. Just make sure the offset is similar. Put 17's on my S60 without any problems.

I've got 17" pegs on my 98 S70 and they do rub on full turn, but not too bad. They look sweet - In fact I had a few older guys in a 5 series BMW compliment me on them at a stop light the other day

There are some pics in my album!

My 850 came with 15's and I put 17 inch Volans and are fine! No rubbing, etc... Your S70 should be fine. Just watch your offset.

Hey, did that throw off your speedometer much?

Sure didn't! Stuck with plus 2 on the wheel and minused 2 on the side wall.... It equals to the same as what I had if I was running the 15's! Just to make sure, I also checked with VOLVO on what they ran tire wise on factory Volans....
