      Wheel choice is pretty subjective, but hopefully one set is decent of the nine shown.

      Those are my second favorite now (but things change with my wheel preferences... Obviously) Always loved those, too. All these will work on your Contour btw nearly same car.

      Was anticipating this from the other wheel thread in showroom. 18s do look balanced on there.

          I wish it was so easy. Yes, I can get adapters, but since camber adjustment is a no go, it seems a little more complicated, given all those wheels are relatively wide, and with the addition of an adapter, it'll put the final ET too low, or low enough to where there is some major pokage. Those Twists would look baller, though, huh? hahaha

            Wait a second, did some quick research, I didn't know Twists can be had for different sizes and widths?! Holy crap! There's an 18x8 with ET 50? Or something like that? Hmmmmmm, I may just look into these now!! hahaha

                Yes, I think they even do Boxster fitment in 18x7.5 and 18x8.5. Late model Porsche offsets are always mega high, that is why us VW guys jumped on them with adapters so much about 10 years ago. This time I just wanted them as wide as possible and 10" seems to be the limit on this car.

                  I too saw this at the Leavenworth pre-meet at BCC, pics do this car no justice, absolutely gorgeous! Any other plans for it besides other future wheel choices, or is it pretty much done now?

                                This means a lot coming from you. You and I were the only Volvo guys doing this stuff and it finally came around.

                                I thought your comment about me innovating in your build thread interesting. I didn't see it as innovation - more like take a 5-year-old VAG or BMW aftermarket concept and apply to the Volvo platform... blasphemy, shocking, crazy and new there, but not everywhere. Kind of like when people find tribes near the Amazon or in Africa who have never seen civilization - showing them something new isn't too hard and not really innovating.
