If you have a bent turbo wheel (3546745).... 850

... and you have 3546745 stamped on it, it also goes by H70185, or 9134402 (volvoworld has a pic by this number, dealer goes by this number as well).

I just had a bent rim replaced (bent AND cracked, so they couldn't fix it), and had a difficult time trying to track it down to the exact model. It's a 5-spoke, 5-lug swept design, and I believe it's called Columba. There are a couple that look very similar (one of them is Perfo, which I like better). Thought it might be of help to someone going through the same thing.

At a local dealer, a new one would've been ~$380. An on-line purchase for a reconditioned one would've been anywhere from $230-$280. Got a reconditioned one locally (Newton, MA) for $200 (+tax). If anyone wants to know, I'll give out the name of the shop. Not affiliated, and first time client, but they seem to know what they're doing. Will see how it goes and repost if anything wrong happens.

Getting it fixed would've been $100 + $15 (mounting & balancing). Hitting the pothole happened a couple of weeks just after swapping out of winter tires... ARG!

Funny thing is, 70 series uses same H70185, but they've got left AND right, and universal (only right) for 850s. I wonder if the 70 series brakes are different in terms of cooling?
