prasamin Posted April 10, 2005 Report Share Posted April 10, 2005 If your going for looks, personally, I'd say keep the nebulas. What did these wheels come on, XC90?←yup, XC90's 18" Nebs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SIAMBLUE Posted April 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 Well people i know i am going to kick myself,I had a set of Tritons lined up in Scotland or £700 about US$1350,Then i was looking on Ebay today and saw a set for Buy it now £550 US$1050,So i sat it out and got them for US$890 what a bargain i thought,All been refurbed,Just need some boots for them,So i am going to go 225/35/18s and sell my Nebs with the 235/40s on them,Then my car should be a bit quicker and the speedo will read true again,Thanks for all your help lads,Knew i could count on you all,I still love the Nebs though,They just seem to be so brighter than to the Tritons.

George @ ViVA Posted April 12, 2005 Report Share Posted April 12, 2005 The 18" wheels on the XC90 are actually called Atlantis, not Nebula. They are 6-spoke vs the Nebula's 7-spoke design.Here were my Tritons....nicest wheel available from Volvo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteT5 Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 K, I just lost control of all bodily function. That has got to be one of, if not the hottest 850's I've ever seen! George, I don't think I'd seen pics of your car before. You've got to buy another Volvo. EDIT: You have any hi-res versions of that pic? It would make my day to have that car sitting on my desktop.

I miss that car, but there's something new that has taken its spot in my stable...I am out of town on work right now, so I'll get you some pictures of the new car when I'm back home.As for the hi-res pictures, I'll have to check my digital camera archive when I get back home. If you PM me your email I can send you what I have.Here's one more...http://www.vptuning.com/t5r/may2003/1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volvokiller Posted April 14, 2005 Report Share Posted April 14, 2005 Tritons are sweet. Pimping a set on my 242 right now actually.The six spoke wheels that Doug posted are 17" and are being sported by my S70. I think they are called Neptune. The 18's that come on US XC90's are the six spokes that split on the end....Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
