Question Looking for some decent rims for my volvo 850..sugg

Hello all,
Id like to get some '17 feet for my car and wanted some suggestions. A lot of the volvo guys rock the differnt variations of the stock R wheels.

Titans,


Volans,


and Pegasus.


I was just hoping for somethign different.

Any ideas?

Thanks

I think you could put almost anything on your car. What kinda wheels do you go for?

Multi-spoke? Five star?

What about color and finish? Chrome? Black? Colored?

You also have steel wheels or alloy.

What bout Lips? 1-2 or 3 piece wheels?

Point us in a direction.

Sorry fellows,
17 or 18's would be nice.

Spokes or 5 stars..hmm tough choice.

Black

Alloy

Lips are sexy but if they don't have them i wont be mad.

be careful that you get wheels the same width as the stocks, i tried putting some after markets that we're only 2" wider than stock and they would rub

You won't have many good options being a Volvo, 5x108.

IMO, Titans look the best on the 850's(thats what I had on my 850T). They tend to be hard to find since they only came on the 95&95 T5-R. The Volans are usually easier to come by.

Option 3 is nice but expect to pay alot for them.
