DeZemBer · May 5th, 2018, 21:19

Finally after a week of crappy weather, today there's enought sun to take a decent picture of my new ride

Will going to miss that 20 inch wheel soon

Beautiful. But I don't get your urgency to ditch the wheels. Wheels have got bigger over the years. Just accept them. They look far better than 18".

Both running cost as well as ride comfort were the reasons I chose the 18incher... would love the 20inch wheel if I don’t do like 18k miles a year

Very nice Dez - I have to agree, you’ll miss the wheels. The inscription without 20s will look a bit poor (and devalue it).

I hope you didn’t get your pants pulled down over them.

That said - 18” R-Design Black alloys will look good with the black car.

been running 19'' since january and 20'' 3 weeks now ( summer tyres ) and both wheels have been more comfortable than my old XC70 on 17'' , try them abit before you change them to 18'' , I'm running 245 /40 R 20'' and if yours are the same dim try them first

Mine is on 255/35/20. I would thought on an 18 inch would be quiet er as well on motorway...

Just saw a r design similarly black onyx parked right behind us on a 18 inch wheel. And yes, it does look weird on the s90

Do you know if the s90 can fit a 245/40 on a 20 inch wheel? Doesn't seems to be an option in the official Volvo pricelist

you can get even 21'' so 20'' should not be any problem

I went from 18” to the 20” you have, seriously, made little or no difference, the car looks so much better on 20’s, just stick with them
