Default V60/S60 Winter Wheels

Complete set of the latest Pandora wheels fitted with Continental Winter Contact tyres.

Only 2000 miles use and condition is as new. Always kept cleaned and polished. Tyres still have 8mm tread.

I guess will also fit later V70’s

I know it’s not the best time of year to sell winter wheels but I could do with the space to store the ones for my new car so will take £600 for them for a quick sale. The new price from Volvo is around £1400.

Collect from South Northants.

May also be interested in exchanging for some for my XC60 or a set of 18-inch Ixion rims.

Thanks.

Mike

Out of interest Mike, how do you find the narrower tyres on the Pandoras cope with the power from a polestar'd D5?

I'd have been interested in the wheels if I didn't already have a set of winter tyres (no rims) sitting in the garage with only one season's wear on them....

Hi Andy,

No problem at all. As you can see from the very small wear I am not exactly a hooligan but gripped exceptionally well even when pushing on. In fact I thought the car felt even better than on its 235 summer tyres. They were also quieter.

Cheers,

Mike

Hi Mike,

I've just purchased a 2014 V60 D5 R-Design Lux Polestar which has 19" Ixion wheels fitted.
From my reading so far I'm assuming these size wheels and tyres as they are listed in the manual and you previously had them fitted to D5 will be a better option for winter on my car.

if so I'll take them at asking, It may be a week or two though before I can collect.
