    Volvo 17 x7.5" wheels on Freelander 2

    Hi All!


    New FL2 owner and looking to get some 17" wheels.


    Given how hard (and expensive!) it is to get originals, has anyone heard of using 17" Volvo XC60 wheels?


    They have the same PCD and a 55mm offset.


    Thoughts?


    Thanks


    Martin

    Jump on carsales and find someone selling one with 17s and do a deal to swap wheels

    much easier and cheaper

    You mean someone selling a fl2 with 17" rims?


    I'll look into that, but hoping I can keep the 18" wheels in new condition for when I (eventually) sell the car. So kinda trying to get some feedback that the Volvo rims will work before I get them and the tires...


    But I will definitely take that on board.


    Thanks

    All the specs on the wheels seem to be the same (some say the offset is 52 most say 55) but I have already made a offer to some people on carsales for 17" rims...
















    But I can get the Volvos cheap and keep the 18" LR's...


    Thanks again
