Got some spare cash and want to upgrade from the 15s on my s40, they dont have to be volvo wheels so hit me up with what you have!

Im a bit of a volvo newbie but they are 17s correct? And also quite expensive?

Wheels are definitely getting replaced but haven't decided if I am going to break the car or not. It's a T4 and has starting issues. The FPR housing is damaged and I am searching for a replacement. If this is not sorted, then it will go for breaking

I am after £200 for the wheels.

Once its stopped raining i'll walk to the bank and see if my funds will alow it but if you so end up breaking it i call dibs on the grill

You could get an alloy repair kit and fix them yourself. I bought the E-tech alloy repair kit and re-sprayed my alloys and it was a huge difference! I didn't even bother fixing all the small imperfections either!

20 quid for the full kit
