Warning-Air dam (front spoiler)/non factory wheel rims. Air dams can negatively influence the normal flow of air to the front wheel brakes. Therefore , special light alloy wheel rims approved by volvo must be used in conjunction with the air dam .> Steel wheel rims 1980 or later year models together with vented brake disks CAN BE USED in place of light alloy wheels <. Therfore, steel wheels did come on turbos as factory as well as the vented brakes, the turbo im looking at in the junk yard has steel wheels and the vented disks. I here a lot of people saying turbos dont have steel wheels, well they do, and they also have alloy wheels as well . This info came out of my 1985 owner manual for 240 DL , GL , TURBO . Is what there talking about is so people dont put steel wheels on the car with tiny holes or hud caps that would hinder the flow of air threw the rim to the brake disk and out the other side.
