Source for 850 turbo wheels?

Post by teamcrossworks »

I'm sorry, I've just discovered this site and I have a million questions I hope can be answered. I'm looking for a good source for uptaining turbo wheels and tires for my 95 850 GLT. Any info would greatly be appreciated. I'm also looking to due some modest upgrades to the engine and suspension if anyone has any ideas. Again greatly appreciated!

I'd check salvage yards or used wheel distributors. I remember going to one in Denver 4 years ago that had tens of thousands of wheels for sale in a warehouse.

Like TSquared said, there's a bunch of upgrades and repairs on my main page, like this very well written research paper on the best chips for Volvos.
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!
