Default 17" Volvo Wheels...

Hi,
I know someone selling Volvo 5 stud wheels, 7 spoke,17" size. They were on a Wentworth estate. I am told they are stamped Volvo with the following numbers, presumably on different areas of the wheel.

3529717, KBA42039, 7Jx17E120

Has anyone a wheel of this description lying around and can see if it stamped with these numbers, then tell me the name of this wheel.

He thinks the wheels were available in the early nineties.

cheers,Mike.
ps I have not seen the wheels as it is a 200 mile drive and would like to know what they are before buying them.

Hi Basher,
thanks for the quick reply. 2 questions please. Do you know if these will fit a 1994 T5, and if so, what sort of price should I pay. The chap says they are unmarked.

Thanks for the info and help,Mike.

1st question is no. They will physically fit as they have the 5 x 108 Bolt pattern, but they have a 20mm offset where as an 850 C/S/V70 needs and offset of around 40mm.

Price...... haven't a clue, I understand they are quite rare but have no idea how much they are worth?

It's probably just me, but the original post said the wheels were 7 spoke; whereas the polaris ones are five spoke. So I'm a bit confused :-)

Nice looking 240 though.

Yes it does say 7 spoke, but the part number he quoted off the wheel 3529717 matches that of the polaris and to the best of my knowledge that is the only 17" rim Volvo made for those cars. So my only guess is that the original description must be wrong?

Hi Guys,
yes, the wheels are indeed 5 spoke, my mistake.

cheers,Mike.
