1986 Volvo 245 Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1986 Volvo 245 DL or GL uses a 5x108 bolt pattern and rolls on 14x5.5-inch wheels with a 20-millimeter offset from the factory. You can upgrade to 14x6, 15x5.5, 15x6, 15x6.5, 15x7, 16x7, 16x7.5, 17x7, or 17x7.5 inches. Since your Volvo runs the same width front and rear, any square setup works perfectly for your needs.
Make sure any wheel you choose has the 5x108 bolt pattern—nothing else will fit your Volvo. The hub center bore measures 65.1 millimeters; if your new wheel's bore is larger, use hub-centric rings to ensure a proper fit. As you go wider or choose aggressive offsets, monitor clearance at the fenders and suspension to avoid contact, especially on the larger sizes available to you.
Every wheel we stock for your 245 is verified to bolt on safely and ships free to the lower 48 states. We carry Heritage Wheel, Petrol, Asanti Black, fifteen52, Work Wheels, Niche 1PC, Motegi Racing, and Mazzi in fitments that work for your Volvo.
