SkyWriter Posted September 16, 2006 Report Share Posted September 16, 2006 best thing about pegs are they really show off your calipers if you've painted 'em or got a big brake kit. besides that the simple contours are irresistable (which is why i got them) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoony Posted September 16, 2006 Report Share Posted September 16, 2006 Honestly, I know Pegs are cool and everything...but why does everybody want the same exact rim? I used to want them until I came to VSpeed and found out that it's not original....I dunno. I guess I'm just getting sick of looking at them...They still look cool though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I'm just getting sick of looking at them...They still look cool thoughcuz they were dirt cheap....ok, so 235/45/17 is slightly big...whats a good tire size for when I'm ready to replace the Pzeros? 225/40? 235/35?

I guess I'm just getting sick of looking at them...They still look cool though Ya online you see them often, but here where I am, there arent that many Volvos with Pegs(graydons yes). Since I have put mine on, there isnt a day that goes by where someone doesnt compliment them. Especially at the Coin -Op!I have never seen them on anything BUT a Volvo too! So where I am, Im original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lax01 Posted September 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2006 Ooooh, 17" Pegs 225/45/17 is good from what others have run damnit, I really like the wide-jerk tire (as opposed to 235) but....maybe I'll roll the fenders and see if it still rubs...I guess 225 would be cheaper though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So where I am, Im original.i have to agree with BoxLover, although lots of people have them on the board, i NEVER see them on volvos around here. i mostly see the plastic hubcaps, yuck. and of all the volvo rims i lke them the best. i also have a set of akkris.BoxLover: btw i painted my calipers Red although i really liked your nautica blue idea. yellow was my second choice, being colorblind it stands out for me, red doesn't much.

Spoony Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 Although I agree that nobody around here has pegs, I still know that my car's not original if I do get Pegs. Not too many people think outside of Volvo rims and that's why I want something else. There are so many other wheel combinations to look at out there.Way to get them cheap. Personally, I'd wait out for something that I really wanted. I'm not denying they look cool.Oh, also, my car's not an R. I'm not putting a rim on it that says R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Über855R Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 235/45 and they only rub on bumps...so its not that bad...gonna go with a 225/40, 225/35 or 235/35 when these wear out...Pegs F.T.WWow only rubs on bumps? Have you tried a full lock on the steering wheel? I hope you don't mind worn out fender liners FTW. They do look sweet either way. Nice wheels if you like that OEM look.
