Default S70 alloys

Hi all, I'm viewing an S70 tomorrow that I have seen on eBay

It's a 2.5 10v. It has Volvo Sirius alloy wheels, would that have been standard spec from new?

Quite possibly, was on offer back in the day. Nothing wrong with them, those will only take the 280mm front discs. Nothing bigger, but then most don't. But now I'm nitpickin'

I'd be more concerned that you had winter tyres on the thing, Now there's a nip in the air. However, ignore me, proper winters, with snowflake mark (not simple of M&S mind) are my thing. So don't 'Press' play. You'll not hear me stop.

Just remember an S70 sells for quite a bit less than a V70. Which if you're buying is good for you, definitely not a seller's market.

You can find the accessory brochures for Volvo cars here, takes a bit of digging and scrolling to find a particular wheel. Sirius doesn't appear to have been available pre 2000 for the S70 in question but was a post 2000 V70 option.

Agreed, Ariane rims which were definitley fitted to some C70 1999 yet is not listed as a fitment.
