Default XC60 Wheel Spacers….

Hello folks.

I’ve run a search of the forum and haven’t found any info.

I’m thinking of fitting some hub spacers to my 2014 XC60 D5 SE Lux on the factory 18” SE Lux wheels. Has anyone tried this on their Volvo? If so, what width have you gone with?

I don’t want to end up with any rubbing on the arches, but there is always some room built into the factory clearances so people can use snow chains, but since I’ll never need them then that’s not necessary.

I’ve used spacers before to improve the stance and have never had any issues.

Thanks all.

I have eibach 15mm spacers on my XC70 to widen the track and improve the stance. You can measure the distance using a level against the bodywork to see how much wheel offset you can change. As you say there is room to play with.

I ended up with 15mm front and back. Subtle enough to make a difference without the 'Max Power' look!
