advice needed alloy wheels
hi< I have a 2016 xc60 with diamond cut ixion 3 alloy wheels. Unfortunately I have kerbed one and need it repairing (unless I can find one for sale anywhere) My issue is the repair place have nowhere to store my vehicle so just need the whell but of course I have no spare wheel. My driveway is on a slope so I have nowhere I can park the car flat to stay on just 3 wheels for the couple of days I have no wheel. The repair place have a company they sometimes get wheels off to fit to vehicles like mine but say they have nothing that will fit an xc60, anyone know any that will fit? Its not to be driven just purely to be kept on the driveway.
If not anyone know anyone selling an ixion 3 wheel? Thanks |

I would not jack anything up and leave couple of days, even if properly supported on axle stands. |

To the OP, perhaps find a neighbour/friend with a flat drive? Space-saver spare borrowed from another Volvo/Ford Mondeo or Kuga. Or try to find a wheel repairer that does have space to securely park your vehicle. Out if interest are you using the guys on Storforth Lane Ind est ? |

out of interest have you thought about not having the wheel diamond cut, my experience with cut wheels is that after the tiniest of chips, they start to star and corrode fairly quickly even after the best refurb.
Id consider getting all 4 wheels done in non diamond cut finish. might be cheaper too than getting 1 wheel diamond cut just my thoughts thats all |
