volvo wheels on mb?
I saw some wheels that I really liked on an S80. They were 27-spoke ( 9 main spokes, and 2 very thin ones on each side of the main ones ) They had 5 bolt holes. I think they were 17 inches.

So, two questions:

Are the bolt hole patterns the same?

And what's the easiest way to get a pic or part number for them?

Thanks

Nope, Volvo use 5x108, MB use 5x112. Also, their wheels have pretty high offsets in general.

These are called "Arrakis" (a volvo upgraded rim). A pain to keep clean!

more spokes (27!!!) mean more elbow grease...just a thought
