I need to know the bolt pattern for a 1989 Volvo 740Gl wagon. The wheels are 5 lug, just unsure what the spacing is. I just got it 2day, all it needs is a brake booster and a battery and its good. It runs fine. It had the common old *** Volvo problen off carbon build up int the TB, preventing it from running at idle. A can of Carb cleaner, a shop rag, and like 5 minutes fixed that, now it runs like a champ. Its a mettalic Maroon-ish color with black interior. Car looks good, I think 20's would set it off-instead off looking like I'm driving my Grandmama's car.

This will just be my cruising car, as its a Automatic, and sadly, not the Turbo wagon. Its got a 2.3 I-4 that sounds pretty bad. Its got tons of room under the hood for a HMT kit, if I ever decide I want a T3 and 450's in the wagon. Would be a hell of a sleeper, but I just want this car as a daily driver/crusier/excuse to have a car with big rims, since Civic's are gay with anything bigger than 17's.

As far as audio goes, I'll either rip out the JVC HU and door speakers from my Civic, but since I hate them I probably wont. I might just get a new pioneer and just shop around for speakers. maybe put 2 15's in the rear, or buy my friend's old set up from his Prelude-2 P2 12's and a 1600w amp. I dunno. I need the fckin wheel bolt pattern.

My Mistake.

Nevermind, I found it. Its 5x108mm. Biggest I can go is 18's, anything bigger will scrub against the spring seat on the shocks. I didnt check out the back, but I'll prolly just run 18's all around instead of putting larger wheels in the back. Thats looks like crap. Its RWD, so I could, but I wont. I might put some wider wheels out back for a bigger lip. I dunno. I got to get that brake booster before I do anything. Found one for like $120, I just got to get it when my paychecks go thru Monday.

Oh yeah, Its got that wierd *** fold up seat in the back of it! I was cleaning it out and looking for the spare when I pulled it up from the floor. It folds up, then folds back down into the floor. ----'s badass. I got to think of a really creative way to set up my subs in the back now. Pics soon as I find my Digi cam.

It would be cool if it was the Turbo wagon- those things supposedly hit 0-60 in 6.7 sec!
BTW its got a b-series lol B230F

Why do you want such big ------ish rims? Dude it's a fridge on wheels. I've got a volvo myself luckily it's a turbo but still auto but I don't dump a dime into it cause it's not worth it.

WTF? ---- off with the racist ----, because I don't find it funny. Besides, I'm not racing it, so it doesnt make a difference. Had this a been my EF, anything bigger than 17's would be out the question.

Your's a 740 or a 240? We get a few 240 t's come through the shop, I dont see very many, if at all any 740 t's.

I kinda like older 80's Euro sedans and such. Thats why I'm interested in this wagon and seeing whats avialible for it.
