What do I need to do to get some nice 17" six spoke XC90 wheels to go smoothly on my XC70?:mad:

It appears that I need some spacers and my local dealer is saying that I must go aftermarket. I got a sweet deal on the used set and planned to refinish them if they could be mated to my XC70. So far we've got some vibration issues after the wheels checked out fine and the tires balanced out...:(

Thanks in advance,
Griff

Hi Michael,
Yes they will fit but as mentioned you need some hub rings to fill the "gap" as the XC90 has a bigger inner diameter then the XC70.
It is just a few mm, believe 2mm (metric, not sure in Imperial).
You can buy these at tyre shops or Ebay. There are a lot on there!!!!

Also make sure on the off set of the wheel you want to fit. Marked inside the Volvo wheel.

[happy]

Thanks brother. I read somewhere (SS probably) the increase was from 65mm to 67mm. I should have done more research, but the wheels and tires look great...[thumbup]
Now, I'm hoping that I'll be able to find some in the local area...[sly]
