16 Winter Rims to Fit C30 2.0 - Volvo C30 Forums and Community

Shappy · 10-24-2007, 02:46 PM

Anyone have a link to a company doing low cost winter rims (steels) or other for striclty mounting snows on. Tirerack doesnt have anything yet. Any ideas?

Looks like you can get some inexpensive aluminum rims, starting as low as 78 dollars a wheel.

Check with your dealer about steel rims. Sometimes they have them for as low as 35 bucks a piece.

Wow, I was about to post something asking the same thing. I think I want 17's but Tire rack doesn't have any C30 stuff, so I just search under the 06' S40. They have 18's for 89$ reg 150 i think. But the tires are expensive!

Shomare · 10-24-2007, 04:38 PM

I also looked for tires utilizing the FWD 07 S40 and found the Tire Rack had multiple size rims including 16's if that's what you want.

Huh.. small world. I grew up in Fayetteville and Marcellus, NY. So I understand Shomare's winter predicament first hand.. in CT I think I can get by with all-seasons. :)

Shappy · 10-31-2007, 07:01 PM

Ordered and received that setup from tirerack.

I was curious about winter tires also, no one seems to have any info for the C30. Our C30 2.0 should be here the any day and I want to get some winter tires/rims for it. One of the questions on one of the tire websites asked about the tire air pressure sensors for the aftermarket rims. Are these needed / neccessary?

Shappy · 11-08-2007, 11:33 AM

Just put winter rims and tires on. Getting a message about the TPMS on the computer, since I dont have sensors on the winter rims. Do I need to have the sensors put on the wheels, or is there way I can turn off the system until I put the originals rims back on in the spring?

Shomare · 11-08-2007, 12:07 PM

Maybe find out if the TPMS has a dedicated fuse. If so, maybe you can pull it.

Tommy3156 · 12-06-2007, 08:22 PM

Has anyone found out if it has a dedicated fuse..... because 320$ extra is...a lot extra

what's on each fuse is/should be listed at the back of your owner manual.
