P2's have bigger arches than P1's dont they? As i have those rays et30 7j 17s on mine and mines -faarkloads of mm with 215 40 tyres, no rubs at all, although do to the harsh ride (and not wishing to sacrifice the lows) i plan to go to 205/45 tyres this week, i shall report back.

Yes they will fit but on cars with factory Arcadias they had a different speedo calibration to run 215/45/17 tyres.
You either need to get your speedo recalibrated at Volvo, live with the inaccuracy or go to a 215/40/17 which keeps the speedo at the perfect reading but does have a smaller tyre wall. |
