Can you specify which model and year of Volvo you're describing and perhaps attach a photo of the wheel ?

I know the alloy you mean:
https://preview.netcarshow.com/Volvo...08-1600-03.jpg So far as I know khey were never sold on "civilian" V70s. They are unusual in that they are the only 17" alloy that will fit over the 336mm brake setup on a police spec vehicle. So far as I know they're also rather heavy (to take a beating like potholes or speed bumps at pursuit speeds). I believe they are called "Turnus" and are volvo pn 31201896 Last edited by CTCNetwork; Jan 29th, 2018 at 17:59. Reason: Image too big |

Glad you found them. They look more like XC90 wheels to me.
If you can't get those, your nearest match might be the 'Canicular' model, but they don't have the bevelled spoke edges:

Caniculas will not fit over the police spec brakes.

IIRC they are standard on XC70 SE models around 2011-2012. Loads on eBay
Like Here I bought a wheel only as a spare for my ex-Police XC70 and it is identical.
