The Polaris look RIGHT for the car. Cushti wow. .... Although personally I far prefer good arch clearance. Silly olde me.

But what so I know. My 240 is on Omegas and I say they look RIGHT for my car.




I have tried and failed to like those Aurigas and those Hydras .... in the bucket with Virgos ....

As Baggy said Aurega's are ET25.....

The Hydras look good but the tyres look way too big - very balloon like! Something smaller would look way better and would avoid as many rubbing issues

I fitted Et25 pholus alloys to my old V70 with no modifications or problems so don't see why people think auriga wheels won't work? They didn't have low profile tyres on either.. Also my V70 had very age lowered suspension which was why my C70 canisto wheels did rub every now and then.

I've lowered my car by 30mm, which may cause an issue by the sound of it?

So you experienced no rubbing on full lock or compression?

[855 tdi]

My V70 tdi seemed like it had the original suspension on it at 230k so was pretty low from that and with those decent sized sidewalled tyres I had 0 problems so I expect with careful tyre choice you should get away with it but don't quote me. The canisto wheels on my V70 were the wider C70 variant and they did rub at the back, don't remember about the front. I recently got some bargain auriga alloys in really good condition for £11 a wheel, neither my V70 or my dads 850 are lowered though so I couldn't test it out for you.
