Default Hubcentric wheel spacers

Who makes them for our rwd cars? I need some 25/30mm ones for my Canopus wheels.

There's a few for sale on fleabay :

https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_o...&_sacat=122154

Not sure what model you've got so you'll have to trawl through and find yours but they go from a few quid to £70-80 each, there are also a few different thread sizes for the studs (i know on my 1988 760 they're M12 x 1.5) so you need to check that as well before ordering anything.

If you find a likely one and it's not quite right, it's always worth contacting the seller to see if they can get hold of the one that is right.

Alternatively contact an aftermarket wheel specialist.

Opening up a whole can of worms:
I've been in discussion with a member here over a set of 16" wheels but they seem to have "gone to ground".
I did enquire with someone selling a set of 17" wheels on a well known auction site but I'd need spacers. But what he said was the later Volvo wheels have a different spigot size to the old 940's and that will create a second problem in that the spacer would need different spigot sizes inside to out if you see what I mean.
Anyone any guidance they could offer?
Thanks
Tony H

This might help :

https://www.carlsalter.com/volvo-wheel-fitments.html

Gives the PCD, studs, offset and centre bore (spigot) sizes. If you go up a level from that page, you can access the other wheel fitments listings and potentially find other alternative wheels that will fit. That's how i ended up with S/V40 wheels on my Rovers! Near perfect fit, had to buy some spigot rings as the Rover centre bore is 3mm smaller than the Volvo but other than that, PCD, offset etc were all spot on - even uses the same wheel nuts!

There is a feature on that site that lists wheel fitments by PCD so that might save you getting hubcentric spacers.

At the risk of getting my "cyber-ears" chewed off, what's wrong with the wheels you have?
