I have a 1993 240 estate, I was wanting to fit a set of alloys. Other than the ones from a 240 what other volvo alloys will just bolt straight on with no issues?

Thanks :beer:

do you want to keep the rotor retaining bolts in service? they are that small pin coming thru at the wheel nut diameter between 2 nuts, 1 per wheel. they just hold the rotor to the wheel hub lightly, but their removal might cause some troubles, particularly during servicing/wheel related repairs? you could, I suppose, drill the new rims to take them, I suppose, but that might be unhelpful.

Those pins really aren't nessecary... the brake rotor will be tight once you put the wheels on. Once you get different wheels just take them off and toss them ;)

any wheels from the RWD volvos will bolt on no problem galaxys, hydras, gemnis, etc... all will be fine and look pretty good :thumbsup:

Thanks for that, really want to fit Volvo alloys so will probabaly go this route. This is probabaly a stupid Question, but which are RWD, obvioulsy the 200, but am I right in saying the 900 and 700 too? any others?

RWD = Rear Wheel Drive. hehe...

I know RWD means rear wheel drive, I mean which Volvos are? I know modern ones are FWD, can anyone tell me which ones are RWD? :57:

Everything prior to the 850 series was a RWD* (Rear Wheel Drive*) :haha: :grin:

2 series
7 series
9 series (luxury 7 series)

and the older models like the 1800 but they had 4 lug so you don't need to worry about them :thumbsup:

Thanks for that guys, guess I just need to check ebay!

There's a kid in my town with a white 242 that has Minilite style wheels, and they look great. Low key, very cool
