What is a good aftermarket wheels for a 2000 S70? My preference is a Star (5 or 6 Spoke) design if possible. Tried the IPD Pegasus replica and had problems with fitment specifically the bore. Thanks.

The bore should have been just fine but PEGS are an 8" wheel and very close clearances, you really want a 7" or a 7.5" wheel.<p>They are many, many wheels available, just go to either <A HREF="http://www.tirerack.com" TARGET="_blank">http://www.tirerack.com</A> or <A HREF="http://www.discounttire.com" TARGET="_blank">http://www.discounttire.com</A> to see what they have
