Looking at this option and would like to know if anyone has this combo on their XC70.

I´ve been thinking of mounting them on my car, but was told by my dealer that I´m not allowed to use them on my XC -03 because of wrong offset, too bad... :(

Is the offset different between an -03 and an -06 XC?

Yes I'm bumping a 9 year old thread!!! I have this exact question though, I like the Nebulas.

I believe the 18" Nebula has a et38, while my stock 16" wheel is 49. I know just enough to be dangerous here... Will the Nebulas bolt up as is or are spacers needed?

Bump, I'm going to look at these 18" Nebulas this weekend. Will they work?

They'll stick out a little more - basically, the 'dish' isn't as deep for the rotor face to go 'into' the wheel.
They should fit. What cars did they come on? Is the bore the same?

They fit P2 (from what I've read), they should have the same 65.1mm hub bore.

Here's the rest of the specs according to Volvo:http://accessories.volvocars.com/en-se/V70%2800-08%29/Accessories/Document/VCC-425365/2004

Any word on this install?

The are a very tough looking rim and would suit the car well.

Cheers,

Nick

Thanks for the pics, they convinced me to buy a used set of Nebula rims and tyres last month.

I've only just fitted the 18" rims to my car, the current tyres fitted are: 235/40 R18 95Y Pirelli PZero Rosso

Noticed yours aren't low profile and have a bit more rubber, what are the tyres as it would help with the ride and fill the wheel arch nicer?

Thanks in advance,

Nick
