I had upgraded my wheels on that volvo model/year from the stock 15" to a nice looking aftermarket 17". The hardest part was finding the correct 4-lug wheel, and correct displacement between the lugs. Other than finding the wheel, I didn't really have much of a problem. However, the ride is stiffer with the 17" wheels and does make my cds skip a bit more. But it does look nicer and helps in the performance if you buy good tires as well (I use Michelin Pilot Sport tires, which I very much recommend). Hope this helps... Let me know if you have any other questions.
