I picked up a set of rims 740 Turbo rims, about a month ago, from one of my auto teachers (I have 2 of them) for only $1.50 plus tax (Well, technically it was a XL coffee from Tim Hortons).


A bit dirty right now. I'll probably clean them when it is warmer


The original center hubcaps were stolen when my teacher was still using them, so I took the little center cap from one of my dad's wheels to see how rim would look with them. I don't think they look that bad.

I'll probably use them once I get a Volvo, if it doesn't look that bad on an 850, because I know the offset is different.

I like the look of retro wheels (old on a new car, or new on an old car). I want to see how some 240 Turbo wheels would look on my car (if they would even fit tongue.gif)

haha, then go post a pic of them on your 850 at turbobricks and start a war on how RWD rims should not be on a FWD vehicle

No need for a war, they have ~18mm offset, you need ~43mm on a FWD. Good luck getting them to fit! I've heard if you are lucky sometimes they fit in either front or rear, I can't remember which.
