Yeah there older volvo r wheels, my dad had some on his old s60

The R isn't on the newer ones now though. Also back then I don't think it was classed as r-design, just R. I could be wrong though. I think r design came in mid 2000's

What the last chap said, these are from an 'R', which is a 300bhp super saloon/estate where R-Designs are just tarted-up standard cars.

They look to be the Pegasus R replica alloys.
Judging by the centre setup
