My shit 940.

This should be how the rear wheels will sit on my car with their current dimensions and the need for an adapter. This is how they'd sit with a 25mm adapter...19mm is also being considered. They're dual drilled wheels, so I'm not sure if a drill and fill is possible without compromising the wheels.

Awesome! Can't wait to see it with the old school billets!

Test fitted a wheel on the rear with a 25mm adapter I had laying around.

Looks spot on!

This is the side that sticks out further too at the moment, once I get an adjustable panhard rod in the back it should be money.

I dig your steelies with the volvo caps in them. looks awesome. I've always wanted those wheels on mine but I had no idea the caps would fit

Gonna refit them with larger chunky tires and lift the car up for the winters maybe.

EDIT:// Who can I contact in regards to changing the title of this thread, I dislike the name I gave it many years ago quite a bit.

Also, there's a very good chance the car will be getting decalled up with AirCal stripes when it's done.




Would necessitate a move to painted, smoother S/V90 door rubstripes too.

In that case I would suggest using the ones from S/V70 instead. Used them on my 940 and it eliminates the need of welding the old holes in the door.

They require some modifications though, but I'll be happy to fill you in if you choose that path.

[Matt]

The S/V90 ones don't go into the same mounting holes as the rest of them? News to me.

Yeah, if you wanna send me a PM or something on what's required to do the S/V70 ones, that would be awesome, thanks!

[Matt]

Mounted some tires that will be way too big for the wheels, just so I can fit them and lower the car onto the ground and see what I'm working with. 195/55R16 Bridgestone Potenza's that are smoked...it sometimes pays off when you work at a car dealer that specializes in small cars to get take-offs, hah.


I'll have to give the wheels to the repair company our dealer group works with and have them take a look over and see if any more than that one needs straightening.

[dharker]

Going to polish them up before putting them on?

[Matt]

Test fitted with the giant tires. 6mm smaller adapter and some smaller tires and I'll be gucci.

[Matt]

bought a steering wheel.

(not actual wheel, same style and model, just on a different car)

might paint the spokes black.

need to find a cool horn button now.
