I was surfing and found this. Very cool, now if it were just a wagon. It'd be just like mine then, only mine's stock.

This was my good friend Jan's '96 850 T-5R. It was heavily modified. Good for about 300hp. But Jan sold the car recently and is waiting for a brand new S60T5.

Those 18s look amazing. What car did they come on new? S80?

Those are Volvo Triton 7.5x18, and you can get them as an option on the C70 Coupe and Convertible.

Dude thos rims are so phat, what are they. are they stock 18's? and terence your volvo looks so awesome, how much did everything cost and what kind of hp do you have in there

Hi sniper,

As Indy said, those wheels are called Tritons and they are options for the C70s. Thanks for your kind words about my car. Don't ask me how much everything cost, because if I have kept track, I would have killed myself by now after knowing how much I have spent

I have did 2 dyno sessions and both times, I pulled about 230hp at the wheel which equals to about 270+hp.

Check out these wheels. They were on an S60 at the Detroit show. They're also 18s.

Dude those rims are sweet, you know volvo have the best stock rims. i mean i know you can get bbs with saab's but still don't volvo make those rims and besides their stock those new 17 on the s60-t5 OMG their so sweet id make love to them if it wasnt a big piece of metal....but seriously i think that they have the best rims around alot of other companies make these ghetto rims with some lame ass ghetto hub cap..wait i got it how about a new C70 coupe with some like GOLD wire rims with the little eagle in the middle that spins.. and 6 18's so you can bump to the booty music. and wait tint the windows and lower it with hydrolics and stick the wheels out the side..and of course YOU MUST HAVE THE CHEETAH SKIN SEAT COVERS..nothing like it in the world ohhhh..so sweet makes me think of shaft...or no wait DOLOMITE YES HE IS THE MAN...who stole my pimp CANE!!!!!

Hahaha! I think that the problem with Volvo is that their base cars have terrible looking rims, while their top cars have awesome looking rims. It seems like there is no middle ground.

The S60 T5 18" Nebula and 17" Tethys, V70 T5 17" Amalthea, S80 T6 18" Capella and 17" Arrakis, S40/V50 Crater 16" and Cyber 16", C70 T5 Triton 18", Comet 17", and Canisto 17" are all beautifully designed wheels.

This is one of my favorites for sure: The 7.5 x 17 Comet in silver. Perfect for showing off some crossdrilled/vented discs and painted calipers.

yeah good point. their old rims sucked but i think now that volvo is coming back into the VERY sporty and high powered race of cars. they are coming out with some nice rims...my dad owns a volvo and its an 88 240dl and it sucks so bad i used to hate volvo...until i rode in my friends 95 850-t5 i thought differently now volvo's are my favorite car.....
