Probably but you'll almost certainly end up with problems with the front wheels fouling the arches and chassis on nowhere near full lock. Also there may be problems fouling the inside of the wing when the suspension is fully compressed.

You have to be really careful when using wheels designed for FWD/AWD on a RWD car and vice versa because of the offsets etc.

What wheels/tyres have you got at the moment and what about a Volvo wheel to fit instead?
