Thumbs up See Different Alloys on a Range of New and Old Volvos

If you want to see how different alloys look on old and new Volvo models click on your chosen car on the drop down menu. The site is in Swedish, however all you have to do is click on each alloy type to see it on the car of your choice: http://www.volvocars.se/salesandserv.../FalgGenerator

Handy, shame they have the 18" Nebula listed for the 740/940 even though it's the wrong offset to fit. Not only that but they call it a Draco!

handy site, IC.

Does any know who is the OEM manufacturer for the Cappella wheels? Found that Borbet in Germany do the Tethys and a few others, the UK site also has an on-car viewer
http://www.borbet.co.uk/
and the prices are certainly cheaper the main dealers.

When you said old, I thought you meant much older than what's there!!!

I'll take the 7/945 on Hydras

Pleasantly surprised to see a V90 listed - had fun with this, but tend to agree with John!
Cheers,
Jeff.

Thumbs up Alloys in abundance.

For a massive array of alloys look up Performance Alloys in Ireland. Click on Replicas and you should find wheels for Volvo. I got T5 alloys for my 850 no bother, saw them on the car as well, looked nice, I bought them. All prices include delivery to the mainland UK. Bought set of four for £328:00p 1/3 of the price required from Volvo. Volvo (Bells) wanted over £1000. The replicas are made in Italy and are very good quality.
