Re: all I went to the dealer for was touch up paint! (Ride R)

Damn! Why sell them? Those looks very nice on the car. I like the addition of the front spoilers on a black wagon. A nice touch. http://********************/smile/emthup.gif

yeah I think they look nice but I wasn't really looking for rims and really didn't want to go bigger than 19". Damn peer pressure!

for anyone that cant see it:

Nice, but quite impractical (and kidney busting) for anyone who doesn't live in the deep south with their nice smooth roads

Actually the ride really wasn't bad, yeah I only did 10 miles but It only felt a hair stiffer. My car also has the TME springs, so not bad for 20's.

Looks good but you must have some very nice roads where you are at. I have enough tire issues with 17's on the roads in Texas with my V70R, which admittedly is loaded at times with luggage, cargo, etc.

I am surprised that an authorized Volvo dealer would sell and/or install these since I am sure you can not get a proper load rated tire, and of course if off set is different allows them to blame wheel bearing failures on the rims.

I bet after they sold him the rims, they went and flagged his VIN with VCNA

Re: all I went to the dealer for was touch up paint! (bschurr)

I should have spent the money on performance upgrades. i didn't really want to buy wheels bigger than 19", but they looked good and I made a mistake. I just want them to have a loving home
