V70 Jaguar wheels
Looking for a new set of 19" wheels for my v70 t6, not looking for aftermarket and most of the other Volvo wheels are either too small or are off of xc models so would need new tyres all round, I've spotted some Jaguar 19" wheels as fitted to XFs locally, wondered if anyone else is running 19" wheels from Jaguar or other manufacturers?

There's a guy in the USA who turned an XC70 into a V70 (because they don't have them in America) on SwedeSpeed (ProlixArgon is is username) and he tried several different 19" and 20" Jaguar wheels options I recall. I have some photos saved and I'll attach them. There are certainly a number that fit - I have been interested in doing it as Volvo Artio 19" are way too fragile (I've tried them). Several of the Jaguars have asymmetric front and rears, so just be careful of that. Going beyond 8" wide wheels is also tricky, unless you use spacers to move the wheels away from the suspension struts.
Look at this thread on SwedeSpeed: https://www.swedespeed.com/threads/h...-a-v70.496570/

and now I've found ProlixArgon's long thread about converting an XC70 to a V70. Long, but very interesting and absorbing. The lengths some people will go to...

Brilliant, exactly the information I was after, not only that but someone is selling a set of the BBS splits in the first few pictures near me. Thanks!

Definitely worth trawling the ProlixArgon thread for different wheel options - he tried them all! (All USA available ones, anyway). here's a couple of screenshots of other Jag wheel trials - with the blurb that describe sizes/offsets/etc.
I really like that first set... I have just bought a set of 18" Cratus and good tyres for £100 (bargain) and had them refurbed, so they will have to do for now, but I still crave some 19' or 20" Jag wheels... Whatever you do don't buy Volvo 19" Artios. They are incredibly weak and our pothole filled roads in the UK are no place for them! Funny, because my old 2009 Alfa 159 ti had beautiful, slender-spoked 19" alloys running 235/40 tyres and we never bent or damaged any... I think they may have been forged wheels. Incredibly pretty, but a right pain to clean...

Yep, the Jaguar wheels on the silver v70 look ace, more of an oem+ look which is what I'm after, how does the Volvo AWD cope with marginally different size tyres front and rear, I know that it's a definite no no on some cars, I assumed I would have to go with a square setup, had ruled out any staggered sets?

All wheels from the 2003-2009 XJ are square, the newer xj 2009 onwards are staggered
