Just about every Volvo over the last 10 years has had 18" options, tons of choices.
Do a Bing/Google search for Images on "volvo 18" wheel"
I'm not sure all of the widths but 7.5" seem common.

 

Stock V60 CC wheels are 18" x 7.5", with 50.5 mm offset.

Pretty sure SPA V60 (non-CC) are 18" x 8".

 

BBS and Enkei are two of the better aftermarket wheel manufacturers. Tirerack is always a good source for aftermarket options.

For genuine Volvo take a look at facebook marketplace, craigslist, or ebay for new car take-offs - they typically sell for much, much less than new. There are a bunch of 18" wheel options that would fit your car.

 

I would visit a few rim and tire shops talk to them and see what they have . That way with a one stop shopping if there is a problem it’s there problem with no where to pass the buck.

 

I'm considering buying out my leased 2019 V60CC. I find the ride on the stock OEM 20" rims a bit harsh and plan on down sizing to 18" rims. As its my first Volvo, I am not familiar with the brand, and would like some opinions on good quality aftermarket 18" rims. I would like direct fitment so no spacers etc. The rims from the dealer are nice but somewhat overpriced in my market. Also not against buying good used OEM rims, but am not sure what other Volvo models use a similar wheel size. Thanks in advance.

I'd suggest searching for a set of Volvo brand 18's. I'm sure there are many who have "upgraded" from 18's to 20's and are looking to sell a nearly new set for a fraction of the price of a set of new ones. They'll also fit better than any of the aftermarket offerings (especially since you won't have to worry about spacers, centering rings, wondering if the offset is ideal or if they'll clear the calipers).

 

I've seen a set of 18X7.5" Volvo OEM rims but am concerned about the offset not matching (they are 43mm vs the recommended 50.5mm). Not sure if these would fit or not.

 

I think you'd be fine. This was being discussed in another thread this week and I was looking at Tirerack for options (there are many) and all of the options that according to TR that would fit had offsets between 42 and 48mm.

 

The keyword is "take-offs." If you go on Ebay, you'll often find that a dealer is selling new wheels at a staggering discount as take-offs. Generally this happens when a customer buys one of their cars but wants to exchange the wheels before purchase. You can often get them with new tires already mounted.

 

May also be worth checking out Konig wheels, they have some nice designs

 

Look at Viva Performance. They sell TSW, I have a set of Chronos as a winter wheel. My third time TSW buying.
I also had Motegi on my S90, a great wheel. It’s about weight. My factory 20” wheel on my V90CC was 12lbs! heavier than the Fifteen52 I have as my summer wheel. Most factory wheels are heavy. You can look at oemwheel.com for beautifully reconditioned factory wheels or buy TSW rotary forged for 1300-1400 a set.
I like doing something different and not having the same wheel everyone else has!

 

The problem that many her have noted, is the lack of viable options. On eBay there some OEM options, but some of them are Expensive. Finding take offs like @1morerobot mentioned is a great idea. You may just be restricted on the pattern options. @EricSan did a great write up on the BBS wheels and setup he bought. All the other posters on this thread have sound advice.

I have been trying to sell my 19 10 spoke diamond cut wheels for the same reasons. My plan is to keep looking for the 18's I want for two more months. If I cannot, I will get a set of used 18's for winter and then get the same 18" BBS wheels for summer.

Another option is to do a group buy. Many here can attest to how I love doing those and it might be a way to get a dealer to lower their prices, though perhaps minimal.

Keep at it. Not everyone can safely run these 19" and 20" wheels where they live.

 

I would say try on BBS or MOMO. I got mine momo 18" looks pretty nice

A somewhat related question: are the OEM wheels stamped with the Volvo name? looking around at used options and some do not show a country of origin or any other identification which makes me think they are replicas.

 

Newer SPA wheels should have a Volvo part number stamped on them, along with the wheel dimensions and offset.

 

I recently put on a set of 18" TSW Nurburgrings that I previously had on my Focus ST, which was pure luck, as this bolt pattern isn't very common. As Sumfun said, a lighter wheel will reduce your "unsprung weight", which only adds benefits. The more weight of the wheel and the other components that the rest of the car sits on, the more work the engine has to do to get them moving. It also improves handling as there are lower forces that the steering has to counteract when trying to turn.

Don't worry too much about the offset unless it's so much lower that they're going to stick out of the wheel well. My wheels have a 40 offset, and they're fine. It just pushes the wheel out a little further toward the wheel well, which I also think makes the car look a little better as the wheels aren't as sunk in.

 

Excellent points! I found with the 20" setup on my V90 and my S90 that the suspension crashed and banged over bumps, expansion joints, etc. With a lighter wheel and tire assembly the suspension is more supple, better sidewall cushion(if smaller dia. wheels) the suspension isn't working as hard trying to control the vertical movements of such a weighty wheel tire combo. The switch to a lighter wheel and tire is improved ride comfort, better acceleration, and braking(marginally) Keep in mind this big wheel craze is PURELY aesthetic on the manufacturer's part, it has NOTHING to do with improved handling. As a former SCCA ProSolo driver, why do you think 17-19 setups rule the track? In particular 17". While the 17" won't fit over our SPA cars, I run 18" winter and 19" summer wheels. Both lightweight and rotary forged. Fifteen52 19x9 with a 275/40/19 Indy 500 summer and a TSW Chronos 18x8.5 with a Vredestein winter.

 

Just bought 2022 V60 CC, may have interest in your 20’s.

 

If you don't buy his 20's, want to buy my 19's? Ten Spoke Diamond Cut.

 

No, but thanks, too close to current rim. Thanks.

 

Tried to delete. Sorry newbie error.

 

I ordered these amazing P6GR wheels which made for Ford Focus but fits perfectly for Volvo: PROJECT 6GR TEN GLOSS BLACK FINISH RS-SPEC FOCUS RS/ST

 

I bought a CPO 2019 V60CC with 20-inch wheels and also wanted 18s. Going off-road with 20s isn’t a good idea. But a Volvo parts department fellow told me I had to go with 19s—18s wouldn’t fit. He said the brakes were sized larger for cars equipped with 20s.

 

Not necessarily true. I run 18” on V90 and S90, it does depend on the wheel

 

If you live in the northeast (or are willing to deal with shipping) give Nick at Re-Volv in Oxford, MA a call.

He gets port take offs for cheap. I bought an 18” set off him for my V90CC to use for winter tires.

 

Nick is a good guy to deal with, I bought a nice downpipe for an S60 off him.

 

Here are the BBS wheels that I just put on my S60. They are 18x8 with an ET42 offset and they clear the 345mm rotors and calipers on my T6. These wheels along with a set of 245/45R18 tires gives quite a bit more sidewall to soften up the ride quite a bit. The BBS wheels are low pressure cast (same process as stock volvo wheels) and are rated to support 1650 lbs each.

 

^ That setup looks oh so good.

On a side note, be wary of scammers out there, folks. One has been trying to con me tonight with some low level behavior.

 

Report to moderator! I have done so and action was swift!

 

Curious… any details on the scam?

 

I think V60 CCs indeed use 345 mm rotors

Thx folks. Done and done.

These perps usually troll WTB lists and either email you that they have a friend who has the exact part you want or they tell you to end them money and they'll ship out the part in a couple of days. The other typical tell tale signs are there if you look closely.

Yep, that's the modus operendi.

Another behavior is that they request money be sent using something non-refundable (e.g. Paypal friend & family)

@msantram, sorry to hear the wasted your time. Chances are, you'll receive a few more such "outreaches" in the near future.

This site makes it easy, because there's no control on who could initiate PMs or respond to posts in classified. I'm active on a few other fora, and some impose a 30-day (or longer) sign-up period where not all functions are available. For a car analogy, this site is comparable like the unlocked car in the garage and is thus a lower-hanging fruit.

Unfortunately, I haven't seen the mods do much...
