Default Nokian winter tyres (235/60R18) on Merac 18” rims

Since changing my mk1 XC60 for a mk2, my winter wheels are no longer required (they don’t fit the mk2 car).

Rims are genuine Volvo 18” Meracs with Nokian WRSUV3 extra load tyres. They’ve been through three winters with light use so still have 6-7mm of tread.

The rims are sound but cosmetically less than perfect, consummate with their age.

I can post pictures tomorrow for anyone interested.

Asking £550 or best offer. Buyer to collect from Melton Mowbray area.

Steve

Can you post a photo please?

Presume by MK2 you mean the current XC60 and not the 2014 facelift?

Correct. These rims are for XC60s produced between '08 and '17.

Just about to post to photos...

Default Pictures... Mantus, not Meracs

So I realised when I pulled them out the garage this morning that the rims are not "Merac"s after all. I believe they're "Mantus" rims which, in my opinion, look better than Meracs anyway!

Here are some pictures of the rims+tyres.

Should fit fine. Yours is the 1st generation (mk1), with facelift.
