16" Mimas and 17" Thor alloy wheels
 
Hi all!

I have two sets (8) 16" Mimas alloy wheels for sale. They were original fitment on my ex- 2005 V70 D5 S. I acquired a second set to mount winter tyres to, and happened upon a third set later. One set went with the car, but I have two sets sitting around not doing much!

One set were refurbed not a million years ago, but have had a bit of a hard time since. The other set wear their original paint, I think, but aren't horrible. A couple have very minor bends, but there's definitely a straight set of four between them, and I was using all 8 at various times without wobbles.

I can get details and pictures if anyone is interested. £20 a piece for straight ones, less for the ones with little bends?

Also three 17" Thor rims, in need of refurb. £20 each. I paid more recently, sadly, but they were not as good as described.

Assume that all tyres are dead.

cheers

James

Hi there,

Just a question regarding the Thor alloys for sale. Do these fit a 2007 S80? (I'm looking for a set of 7Jx17's). Or were these alloys only used on the older models pre-2006?

I think I’m right in saying that the only differences are potentially a small offset change (negligible), and the later wheels have a smaller centre bore. That means that ideally you’d fit spigot rings when putting P2 wheels on a P3, although in practice they are likely to self-centre on the bolts.

Not to talk myself out of a sale, but I’d be tempted to hang on for some P3 wheels (or some from a P1 - C30, S40, etc - they’ll fit).

cheers

James

Any chance you could post a photo or email a photo of the thors?
