My friend Dan hated his Steelies. Steelie Dan swapped them for Pegs

And these are my tires and wheels on the 1998 V70 GLT wagon right now.

I will end up selling these rims btw.... So what are they called? I know they are not Volans hahaha

Also, I can take pics of the steelies that are 15 inch, but I think everyone knows what those look like.

Nice wheel, very common. About 0.833333 cents a piece

ET25 should stick out 5mm more than my ET30 yep. Might work depending on the width of the wheel, shape of the tire itself, height of the car, hard to tell...

That's the best schematic I could find in a quick google image search

(from https://withoutahitch.com.au/wheel-offsets-explained/ )

Our wheels are positive offset, so a lower number means the wheel move outwards. If you go past the center of the wheel, you're into negative offset and it's the opposite

GOUPIL, thank you.

Let's see what happens when I try to fit these onto the v70

Will update next week

Higher ET number means that wheel goes inwards.
Lower ET number means that wheel goes outwards.
Stock ET for 850 is 43...maximum that would fit is ET 49.
More than that and tyres will hit and scrub the struts.
