Tried out some rims today..
 

I saw these snowies chillin in the back of my parents XC70, FWD offset (around +40'ish). I have the same bolt pattern. I had heard of this being done so I put the wheels on backwards hahahah. They don't fit because the way the wheel is formed the concave around the holes hits the brake disc/hub. I definitely like the look I think, especially if I rolled the fenders... Now to convince papa to give em to me and then go give Panther a visit.
Rims were 16x16.5 with 225 snow tires on them.

Anyways, thought I would share so enjoy:

While the car was still in the air:

On the ground, them wheels were a tight fit... Would need a shorter sidewall

This is about the stupidest post I've read, congrats! :thumbsup:

wheels backwards wtf kind of trend is that?

werd

ur car will look like an alligator! get some backspacing!

Some of the swedes do it, and they know how to build cars?

And probably wouldnt run them like that. That's why I said i would give Panther a visit, have the centers flipped around. That way it just becomes a deep dished steelie..

But this is more of hey, i like the look thing :P

.... why not buy a deep dished steelie then?
diamond racing wheels comes to mind...

That's what the plan is down the road, just wanted to throw this together really quick. Panther charges $250/wheel for widening...

I'll check out diamond

wow, thanks man. i feel stupid now.... Enjoy the mad tyte wide volvo yo:P

so its going to have 700hp soon?

an old friend with a '79 LJ80 ( picture an OLD samurai with a .8L engine) ran his rims backwards and it was great.

I see no problems with the OP lolz

just roll with them, who cares if they hit your hub

2 gansta 2 give a FUCK about the hubs son
RUN THAT SHIT

DEEP DISH CHICAGO PIZZA STYLE

Yes, and I will put 215 tires on it so its completely useless as I will just spin spin spin

That's a pizza! Dear god

HAHA that's fucking awesome.

it's hitting the hub though? =(

ya, i've got >9000 of toe out on it cuz it isn't sitting right:P

I'll do that look properly eventually with a wide rim

no pics of the front (or the back =P) of the wheel?

looks like its goanna rub big time

u MIGHT need to roll those fenders

that pizza looks fuckin good

roll the fenders? how bout planting both feet on either side of the fenders and yanking the shit out of them like you're fucking a mongoose? those wheels are WAY beyond rolling!!

Where can I get this?

i like the look hahaha looks so wide, and i want pizza now too

I wish I could help you.

Rust. The fender would come off the car in a cloud of dust.

Duuuude the hub on the XC90 is bigger than the ones on our Volvos, no?
