I still have mine, but they're still dibs'd at the moment. They're not 18's and not quite that cheap either :lol:

Volvo S40/V40 wheels do fit as I discovered when Lisa had hers - I nearly bought a set for the black lude when we bought that :D

Really want to get the Volvo rims and tyres. Only one problem though, and its a big problem... :(

I have a bodykit on my car and if the ride goes 2 inches lower i am totally buggered! :o

What tyres could i get for the volvo wheels that would fit and lift my car to the same dimension as the 18s?

205/50/16 would be the correct size, to give you an accurate speedo etc.

However - to get close to the same size as what you currently have, you'll need 205/55/16.
