Im trying to get a full set of four wheels for my 2000 S70 that would match the ones I already have:
But these six spoke wheels are so doggone hard to find. There are a few off of 850s that look similar but wouldn’t be a perfect match. So, I’m half wondering if anyone has any they’d be willing to let go and half wondering if you guys think these wheels I found on Marketplace would work (and if you think they look good):
By my rough google search, the cars have the same bolt pattern and hub bore, but again, would be real nice to have a full set of matching rims (used, in crap condition is fine. As long as tires can hold air).
I also need input on a roof rack, as these tires would be mounted to some sort of roof tray Sahara style because I think it’d look rad and I’m going full blown on the off-road look… or at least I’d like to.
Otherwise, I’m having a swell night and I hope you are too. Thanks for your inputs!

I am running P2 Volvo rims on my 00 V70R. P2 wheels are the same lug bolt pitch and hub diameter. The difference is usually the offset.
P80 rims are typically in the 43mm offset although I have seen some with a little less. P2 I have seen from 43-49mm offset. That means the rims sit further into the bod y of the car. With a P80 the main thing you have to watch for is with tires on the rims, make sure the rears are not rubbing on the parking brake cables and the fronts binding on the inner fenders, typically at the front of the tire on full lock.

Those 15's came on my 00 S70 SE Base but I've replaced them with 16's from an 07 S60 2.5T. Plan to use the 15's on another car. I really like the V70 rims on the 98 S70 T5 owned from 2012 - 2014.
P80 & P2 rims are interchangeable in terms of center bore. Everything else is a matter of tire size, offset and rim width.
You can compare the rims here.

Definitely wanted 15s for more rubber sidewall (and because I like the look of slightly fatter but still tiny tires). Thank you for sharing a photo of the rims on an S70 to confirm they’ll fit! Do you know off the top of your head which wheels are wider? The 6 spokes I currently have or the ones I’ll be buying on my travels? Will obviously want more contact for rally and less for street.
Furthermore, is there any way the owner can measure the offset? So I’ll know if it’s 43 or 49mm by comparison to the 48 I have now? I could technically bring one of the wheels with me as well, so I’ll be able to compare on site.

Volvo rims have the info stamped/molded on the rear of the rims including part number, width, diameter and offset.

Yes, P2 wheels fit just fine. Here’s my ‘98 on 17” Neptunes (off an XC90):
I do have a crap but round and airtight set of 15” Naiads that I’d let go for next to nothing if you’re in the Northeast or upper Midwest

So, another set of wheels came into play, and this is the final result:
16 inches but it means I have two sets of 15 inch wheels for rallycross! Still need some kind of roof rack, but I LOVE this look!

215/45R17 on the Neptunes, 205/65R15 (corded, with 2002 date codes) on the Naiads (they're off an XC).
