850 steel wheels on a AWD V70 V70-XC70 2000

posted by  someone claiming to be stacy janes on  Mon Mar 12 06:48 CST 2001 [RELATED]

A friend of mine is selling the winter (steel) wheels from his 850 and I now need winter wheels for my 2000 AWD V70R. Will they fit my car?

Stacy-

I just went through this on my '99 V70R AWD. The 15" wheels won't clear the brakes on the front. You must run 16" wheels. The 15" will fit a '98 R, but Volvo upgraded the brakes in '99.
