What sort of wheels should I buy?

I’m looking for some new wheels on my Volvord to replace the nerdy 15s it came with. Do you have any ideas on what brand or style I should go with?

I would prefer some 16s. My bolt pattern is 5x4.25(108mm), with roughly a 25mm offset. Also, what are my resources for buying wheels? Your help is appreciated.

Volvos are too solid. Swedes are too sensible. Go big or go home. Ferrari wheels.

OEM+ look with the R replicas from IPD are a solid choice, but start at minimum 17":

Alternatively, at 16, these voxx look good too:

That looks so much better than I thought it would.

This place sells them for less than I thought they'd cost too (sure, they're still expensive, plus shipping to the US would add to the cost, but I was thinking at least £1000 for a full set)

Against popular opinion, perhaps, but I’d keep the nerdy 15's and stick some fatter rubber on them. Sidewalls are making a comeback bro.

Can’t go wrong with stock 740 Dracos

Or the older 240 Virgos

Or if you wanna spend way more money, BBS RS

Geminis are cool too

Wagon, semi manual, not brown, turbo because volvo > Audio Tachometer 06/01/2016 at 23:45

Oh I wish but the offset and width in the back are too much. Those are rad.

Ocean Classic

They are sort of copies of MIM Juventus, which are extremely hard to get ahold of these days.
