Default V70/XC70 alloys on an XC90?

Hi, I won an eBay bid on XC90 wheels to then find out they're from a V70. This is after trying to fit them and finding out the centre bore on the alloys are too small to go on the hub.

Is there any way of fitting them on or do I have to sell them on? the tyres on them are 245/40/18 which I thought would be kinda small for an XC90.

Can I have any adviice?

Kind regards

You could have the centre bore machined out (only needs a tiny bit) but without modification they wont fit. Only XC90 alloys will fit, even though some V70 alloys look identical.

don't fit the wrong wheels , the xc90 is a much heavier car and will have heavy duty wheels , that is why the bore is different , to stop you fitting weaker wheels from the lighter volvos !

18in Ixions alloys,

They did do them in 19's for xc90's but never seen a set for sale,

Ive just got some 19in Vulcanis alloys for my xc90 altho it took me nearly 3 years to get a set and they cost me a small fortune

Get back to the seller and ask for your money back. Ebay will help you get your money back if the seller is a bit of an arse!
