Put the wheels on recently. Been asked for piccys. Here is the first one (I hope)
Not my cup of tea personally, not really a fan of after market wheels.
Each to their own
It worked b:) not sure about the style myself but then it took a while for me to take a liking to the P3 V70. Definitely stands out. :D
Thats how we roll!!!!

My gay blue wheels have now annoyed sooo many people that I'm gonna keep them that colour (I've even done my Charge Air pipes the same colour too)
They are.....different, wonder what they look like "on the move"
Maybe I should look for a "Pimp my Volvo" forum instead:worried:
Wheels are a very personal choice. As long as you love them, doesn't matter if no one else does.
Don't be like that, were all jealous because we don't have a new style Volvo like you :P

Post a close up pic of the rims plz. Steve
Tim Westwood approves :)
[quote=Germarchip;495940]Maybe I should look for a "Pimp my Volvo" forum instead:worried:[/quote] Everyone on here has differing tastes when it comes to wheels :) It doesn't mean they're the wrong wheels for you. :)
nice wheels, if they had volvo written on them people would love them, bloody snobs
[quote=Germarchip;495940]Maybe I should look for a "Pimp my Volvo" forum instead:worried:[/quote] What matters most is that you like them, everyone has their own taste. Anyways, they're a statement - it defines your car as yours.
its ok mate alot of people on this forum think that volvo were the best designers going and whoa beside anyone who thinks differently lol
CHUCK NORRIS APPROVES - and that's all that matters - RIGHT!!! Certainly different - think the colours go well and think that they'll grow on me over time. Your vision, your choice. Nice.
I quite like them, I think they make a refreshing change :)
I like the wheels, and I like the car, just not sure if I like those wheels on that car. At least they're not painted gay blue.:saythat:
Germarchip - you need a rear spoiler and graded tints for it all to gel. I like a bit of individuality.
How about painting the mirrors silver to match the edge of the spokes, I think it might set it off perfectly. I also agree with the comment about graded tints.
i love them think they look cool compared to most usual wheels with the select colours anthrite/black
[quote=t5frankie;495965]nice wheels, if they had volvo written on them people would love them, bloody snobs[/quote] I disagree. I hate them. Sorry.
Not that mad on them to be honest, but as long as you are happy with them who cares what anybody else thinks!
i reckon if the car had a suspension drop, it would enhance the wheels al ot...in a nicer way. They are a nice set of rims imo
:B_steerin What's the ride like ,looks like it might be a bit firm.
ive said it before and ill say it again.....................if we wanted to go with the norm,we wouldnt be modding volvosin the first place!!! personally i like the wheels,and i like that its different, opinions are just opinions everyone is entitled to one,as long as your happy with the look of your car thats all that matters......................oh and dont worry,there's plenty of pimped up volvos on here,youve only got to look at...claymore or p fandango and more besides ;) dont let this thread put you off the forum mate,trust me 99 percent of the time its all good :D plenty of knowledge etc, the banter you'll come to appreciate in time lmao

They look good :)
Not for me, sorry.
[quote=Harvey;496161]:B_steerin What's the ride like ,looks like it might be a bit firm.[/quote] With suspension as soft as a Volvo, it is hardly noticable. As to everyone who has an opinion on my wheels it does need to be noted that when I bought the car the alloys were completely dead. These came up for sale including brand new Avon tyres & I managed to pay less than the cost of 2 new tyres for the original shoddy wheels. So all in all the ability to drive the car without the tyres going down due to the alloy's being so damaged was quite a big plus
I actually think they look quite cool. Gives it road presence
Bump for 'pin_up gal' ..

I think they look quite cool mate :) Also agree that it could do with lowering a little, this will enhance them even more! Steve :)
[QUOTE=PHILKEN;557351]then I can understand your choice for those wheels 19"?[/QUOTE] Yep 19"
[QUOTE=claymore;496004]I quite like them, I think they make a refreshing change :)[/QUOTE] I'm with claymore on this, they do have a kinda agressive look which i quite like.
