Default 960 wheels

I'm thinking of replacing the wheels, all my wheels need refurbed, all except 1 are quite badly kerbed, so I'm thinking of just replacing the wheels, anyone got any recommendations ? Anyone got a set for sale - with tyres ?

Volvo wheels of this vintage are 65.1mm centre bore 5x108 bolt pattern. Volvo OEM were typically 15" or 16". If you have a post-facelift 960 then it will use the FWD offset (41-45) and this will give you a much broader range of OEM wheels than in the earlier RWD offset.

Personally, I opted for Uranus 16" x 6.5.

17" alloys are quite popular in various guises. Check the offset isn't going to cause you a problem.

I was also looking at some replacement wheels for my 940, until I bought Damos old wheels.

The only OEM wheels I could find that are a direct fit for offset, spacing and bore are those from a Peugeot RCZ.

Tempting but pricey.
