Default Volvo V70 . Steel Wheels ?

Hello.
Could anyone tell me if steel wheels were ever an option on the V70.2000-2007 model ?
Many thanks.

I am 99% sure I have seen a couple with steel wheels and plastic covers. Not many though.

I’m pretty certain that cars of that vintage, when new, we’re sold in Southern Ireland with steel wheels.

Not sure about original equipment, but I managed to source OEM steel wheels with all the correct markings when I opted for a separate set of winter wheels and tyres.

I forget the exact price , around £35?, but they were a lot cheaper than second hand good alloys.

I dont think they fit over the larger brakes, only the 305mm and smaller calipers
