Default v50 winter wheels for sale

For Sale I have a complete set of winter wheels for a Volvo c30/s40/v50.
They were fitted to my 2.0 petrol v50 SE.

These are 5 stud, 15" black steel rims with 195/65 tyres on them:-
- 2 x Hankook Winter I'cept RS tyres
- 2 x Bridgestone Blizzak tyres

The Hankooks have done 2 winters, with the Bridgestone only having done 1 winter.
The Hankooks have 6mm of tread left, with the Bridgestone's having 8mm read left (a huge amount of tread) and in good condition.

I'm in Dunfermline, Fife, Scotland.

£180 or nearest sensible offer

Don't want to sound like a stickler but they are completely the wrong wheels and tyres for the car.

What would you suggest if these are wrong?

Min size of 205/55/16 with 93 load rating and V speed rated. Summer tyres should be W rated.

This is unless you have one of the 1.6 engined vehicles then you can have 195/65/15 91 load and V rated summer or H rated winters. Larger engines need the above as stated as minimum.

General rule of thumb is allowing 1 speed index drop between summer and winters.

Okay, on a follow up check it appears I have jumped the gun and the 15" is applicable for the 1.6, 1.8 & 2.0 petrol but the 2.0D upwards including 2.4 petrol all require the 16". I do apologise.

This is partially incorrect, load and speed rating wise. From my C30 manual (don't know about S40/V50), the following sizes and ratings (15" and 16") are approved for winter tires for the following engines:

195/65R15 91 Q/T/H/V M+S (1.6, 1.8, 2.0, 1.6D)
205/55R16 91 Q/T/H/V M+S (1.6, 1.8, 2.0, 1.6D, 2.0D, 2.4, T5, D5)

V speed rating is required only for summer tires for 15" and 16". 93 load rating is required only for 17" and 18" (W speed rating required as well).
