Center caps for alloy wheels for 79$?

Ouch....you can buy set of steel 15"rims for winter tyres for that price.

I hope abs cate you mean something else. lol

Yes misha this is what I was talking about. If there are interchangeable hubs for the 850 so that they will fit the volvo without changing all these, but with just new rotors fitting the new bolt pattern you could be now 5x114.3 or 4x114.3 or something else.

And I know about the spacer style that changes the bolt pattern, but they are very expensive, spaced already, and would not trust them too much.

Anyway, thanks for the extra info guys. Like I said it was just a far thought that I did not find as a topic in here :)
