G'day Folks,

I've got a bit of a lazy ask - can someone please point me in the right direction / tell me about trendy wheel offsets and sizes?

I've seen some pictures of Amazons and PVs (in particular) with slightly beefier wide wheels fitted but ones which still having almost stock looking steel wheels and hub caps.

I've recently seen an advert (during my many dangerous middle of the night online shopping sprees) for widened 5 inch wheels. I couldn't figure out why someone would want 5 inch wheels when you can buy 5 and a 1/2 inch wheels that look the same from several Volvo spares specialists. I figured there's an offset issue...

...so I'd like to know which wheels were fitted factory fresh on the various standard and sportier models of the Amazon, P1800 and PV please.

Can anyone help?
