WTB: Ixion or Titania Wheels

habs247 · Mar 23, 2014

Hi guys,

Brand new Volvo owner up here in Alberta. Pretty happy with my new (to me) 2013 S60 T5 AWD that I just picked up last week. Notable exception are the factory specced Balder rims which I would love to make my winter set and replace with a set of 18" Ixion or Titania wheels.

So I know it's a long shot but I was wondering if anyone was willing to part with their set, with or without rubber. I would require shipping as well.

Thanks in advance and I hope to eventually contribute here. What a great group of enthusiasts, from who I've already learned a lot by lurking.

PM is preferred. Thanks in advance!

If you're OK with replicas, 1010tires is Canadian and sells ixion replicas for $205.99 each and they currently have free shipping if you buy wheels+tires.

Thank you Jeff. I wouldn't have known about those had you not pointed them out. Tempting.

Now, does anyone know if replicas can be trusted? In particular, from this vendor? Are OEM wheels essentially the same with jacked up prices? Or is it more..."you get what you pay for"?

the volvo wheels are supplied by Borbet wheels from Germany. Who makes the replicas?

Seems like it's a company called Replika. Lots of dealers here in Canada it seems, although a little tough to find reviews.

Bump. Still looking for OEM. Will consider any OEM set that's in great condition and 18" or 19".

Bump. Still looking. Will be in Vancouver in two weeks for about a week, so if anyone wants to sell directly (no shipping) we can do in person somewhere in the NW US.

Also now open to different rims other than what I listed my original post. If you have a set of very good condition 17, 18, or 19s, with or without rubber, shoot me a PM.

If you're in Calgary, I wouldn't recommend aftermarket wheels. Valentine doesn't seem very open to any sort of modifications.

If you're set on some Ixiom replicas, I know of a guy in Calgary with a great reputation who sells them. PM me if interested.
