as a result, these are available should anyone want them
Sorry they didn't fit all round, chap. As I said, friends ad I have had t5's with 302's and 280's. I think it just depended on what Seven and Lars got out of the parts bin that day.

They are a desirable commodity and you already have a buyer. Fuel and a cup of tea is all it cost you.

Cheers,

Absolutely chap, was all my own fault for not measuring properly!

I'm glad I'm not the only one to make this mistake. Don't suppose we'll be the last either!
I too bought a set of 850 T5 wheels a while back for my winter tyres, hoping to fit them on my 98 V70 T5. I didn't even realise Columbas & Perfo's were different wheels at the time.
As you found, they fit fine on the rears. In fact i managed to get one on the front and started to tighten the bolts before realising it was fouling the caliper.
Oh well we live & learn!
