I've never seen one, at least I don't recall seeing one. Any deviations from this convention? Special order? Non-North America?

I have an even number of spoked wheels.

I also have an even number of odd-numbered spoked wheels.

Did I win the weekly Association of Strict Sentence Heirachy of Logic Event?

Any other part of the world where the buyer orders the car and picks one of a very large number of rims from a catalog to go with it from new :wink:

I've got a Volvo 850 -95 sales brochure here so where in a box. I'll post a few pictures of all the options you didn't get when I find it.. :D

Edit: found it. Just need to upload. Weren't as many as I thought. The P2 catalog that's online is huge though.

I particularly love the pics of different kinds of cargo.

I could perhaps scan it properly next week or so if anyone's interested.
