genuine XC90 18" alloys wanted

dpp · Feb 12th, 2011, 00:00

I'm looking for a set of genuine XC90 18" alloy wheels to fit winter tyres to so I can replace the 19" alloys on my Exec model.

I have a set of Genuine 18" BBS on my executive but they are suffering from the common problem of the rims flaking a bit. I'd be willing to consider an exchange deal of sorts with yours maybe. Are you actually parting with your wheels or looking for additional? What condition are your in?

Could you please mail me as I' unable to PM yet

Hi Mike, I'm actually after another set of wheels for winter tyres - off skiing in a month.
Regards,

Wouldn't a set of chains be a lot cheaper and certainly more effective if the snow is that bad?

Unfortunately snow chains don't seem to be recommended for xc90 on 19" rims and I'm happy to get a set of winter tyres now in readiness for next winter here and run on 18" wheels.

Still looking for a set of 18" alloys. Thanks

Don't know how safe you'd feel on these, but believe they're still available.

Thanks for the lead James. Gave them a call and the wheels were already sold. The car looked a bit of a mess.
