1998 S70 T5 M Canisto Wheels

Post by **shaker_chi** » 12 Sep 2014, 21:48

I found a set of Canisto wheels from a C70 on craigslist for $200. They come with p225/45R17 tires and I was wondering if I these tires are going to rub. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I have same size of wheels/tires on my 2000 V70R. I have no problems since I've had the car. I do notice some damage to one if the front liners, at the front of the wheel, but the previous owner was not too clever with the repairs.

: 17" wheels and 225/45 tires

: 2000 V70R

One thought is if you have an early 98. you may have the 'old' style control arms with the 2 bolts running front to back, as opposed to the newer ones with the 4 bolts through the frame. Don't think it will make any difference, but I'd check to be 100% sure. If you have the newer control arms, then I think you are good. Check the offset. If it is the same as your car then you should be good.
