Yes. Eiker E1.

They are 1/2 inch wider, hence deeper dish but the rim looks cheaper and they are not as durable as the Volvo originals.

They're cheaper than I thought at just under £150 a wheel, I'm sure I've read before that they're not that good quality though like you say.

The website is confusing, it says out of stock but also says there's four in stock when you scroll down, it might be worth emailing them to see what the crack is.

The 17" have been discontinued for years, the ones available are 18".
Both are extremely heavy for their size.

I've only seen one set for sale and they went for around £1200 and had 2 dents in.

Incredibly cool looking wheels but sadly, rarer than just about anything.

I sold a set back in 2010 for £200 to John Hughes, they did need a refurb and the tyres were pretty old and hard, you might have seen them on his red 240. I didn't check the money until after he left, only gave me £190. What a bastard!

Hopefully it was an innocent mistake Baggy...?

All the less common wheels are going for silly prices now - or at least the asking prices are higher than I'd expect. Polaris & Gemini both £1k+, Hydras & Aurigas £400-500...
