Mybox855 Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 Ok, so 17"s it is.... I have Koni yellows with B&G springs(-1.6" drop). Can I simply put on 17's or am I going to need spacers? Since adding H&R spacers is going to bump the setup up alot in price.....You can definitely run 17' without spacers but to get the rear out to where the fronts are I would recommend at the least a 15mm spacer in the rear!! By the way does anyone have 15mm or 20mm spacers for sale I need some for the wagon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Shadow Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 i picked 17's, and 17's wonder who that windscreen is for? ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exexpat Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 Regarding the thread...19's are best I think for mortals. With 20s I actually have to pay attention to the road.Previous post...That c70 windscreen was the best $100 or so I spent on the car. You'll love it.

BurgerBob Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 My fav size on 850s/S70s is 16". Get 17s if your brakes will clear them Aren't you running 18's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volvoluvin Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 Ive been running 17's for a year, just about to go to 18's this week... I'll post up pictures of before and after. I do agree with everyone saying 17's will be more forgiving, but for me, and my wagon, I've always felt the "ratio" of wheel/tire:overall visual height of car was just a bit off...ie, the 17's on the wagon, especially at the back looked just a bit small...I think the 18's will improve that visually... 17's: 18's: *EDIT* Picture here by EOD Thursday... 18's now on: SOOOO MUCH BETTER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
