Default XC90 Steel Wheels On a 940 ?

I have searched through all the wheels I can find on Vadis and the only unknown ones are from XC90's. The rest are either RWD or FWD fitment but there are some 7x16 steel wheels listed for an XC90 that are different.

Now for the question, does anyone know what the offset of these wheels are as I would like some for my 940 ?

I am hoping they are different from other modern wheels so I could fit them without using spacers, the next problem could be finding some and perhaps the price if I were to order some from Volvo.

I did mean to put this in the Modified section, oh well.
Done a bit more searching and the XC90 has a slightly larger center bore and have found a few pictures of 850's fitted with XC90 alloys so this might be a waste of time. Be interesting to know for sure if anyone can help. Thanks.

I thought the wheels off a V70 would be FWD fitment. I don't know enough about all the later models. Is there a particular wheel you have seen on a car or fitted that will fit. You can get them in a 7x16 as well.

Oh ok thanks, I don't think that is so much of a problem as the wheels just stick out more. I wanted to avoid fitting spacers really just because they aren't all that cheap and then you still have to get the wheels. Unless I am lucky I will probably need tyres of a different size as well.

I have found a few sites with wheels offset lists and I think that the XC90 wheels are more of a FWD style offset.

Perhaps if I visit a dealers with a tape measure I can find out.
