How about the Hydra? I have sets of those to prove it looks great on 700s and maybe even better on older 240s.
Also very easy to keep clean (flat, big surfaces) AND they take the hubcaps from Dracos (which are cheap +easy to find)
Hydras added a great personality to the 240 sedan.

Would the 2000 V70R rims fit the 1983 760? The bolt pattern is the same, but I wonder if they would clear everything and have the right offset. I think those would look good in a charcoal color (the 760 is silver).

Oh and the hydra's aren't bad looking. They aren't my first choice, but I think they are better looking than what I have now. Thanks for the suggestion!

The offset i off you will need a spacer to fit fwd wheels on rwd volvo. And if you fit red wheels on a fwd Volvo like a 850r it looks badass

OK, thanks for the tip. At least that idea still has some potential.

The color red? Or is 'red' supposed to be 'RWD'?

Yep! Those are the ones. I think they would look good in a charcoal color.
