18" alloys for XC70
 

Looking for a set of 18" alloys for the XC70, with or without tyres, Mint or for refurb (and anything in between).

Two weeks of searching continuously in all the usual places and no joy....
Can anyone help ?

Keep your sidewalls! Miss our 60 (or was it 65?) profiles on our old XC70.

For a moment I got quite excited that I'd had a reply...

No, mine are 235 55 17

Moving to 18's is only a 5% reduction in tyre wall to 50 profile.....
My plan is to keep the current set up of Sargas and the 235 55 17 Pirelli Sottozero winters in the garage then fit a nice set of 18's such as the Merac with summer tyres for the next six months or so, then swap back....

Try usedalloys.co.uk

OP, yes that's a 5% numerical reduction - the actual reduction in sidewall height is something over 10%.

I think these drive more nicely on deeper sidewalls, especially on UK roads that's all.

Having driven extensively on both, I disagree.
Depends on your definition of 'drive' really.
;)

No such site exists.

If one wanted to 'drive' one wouldn't use an XC70, shirley? ;)

I've sent you a private message I have a few sets of wheels if still after some

No private Message received as yet.

My mistake it is “usedalloys.uk”

Thanks for that, though its just a searching site linking to stuff already listed on eBay which, as I've got a permanent watch on eBay, I'm very familiar with.
Could be useful in the future though so I've bookmarked it.
Cheers.

It appears that I'm back to the drawing board...

Bump....

Three weeks and I'm still searching.
Any ideas guys ? Any wheel resellers you can point me to ?

I’ve just looked as looking for a couple for mine. The site address is usedalloys.uk (not .co.uk)

Got some 17” in need of a refurb for sale

Is it the valder model? There are a few on ebay.

18's.
Thats, 18's....

Is what the Valder model ?
