All the volvo rims will fit a 940 except the 93 850. Also, you will need wheel spacers to change the offset if you put FWD wheels on the 940.

I know IPD sells the wheel spacers and you could go with any Volvo FWD 16" rim you like. They all fit the RWD Volvos if you have the spacers.

Have you checked out the Tire Rack selection? Get the right offset and no spacers are required.

That would work if he wants something aftermarket like the Voxx rims. But if he wants to run FWD Volvo rims, he will need the spacers.

I went with the 16x7 Voxx from Discount Tire Direct on my 98 V-90. Love um!! They have a good selection of 16's for the 900/90 series cars.

They look really good on the 960.
