Hi, my name is Axel and I am a Icelandic Volvo driver. I recently had a Volvo 360 witch I unfortunately crashed but I kept the aluminum rims that I love...
Anyway, I have always wondered what's the name of those rims. Can anyone help me???

Good question! They're not Leos, as those were 14" rims, these are 13" ones ... Aukki's famous accessory brochure (which is where we got the term "Leo" from) doesn't list yours - see this thread:

In the NL we call it Lucluc rims...But that's only because a user (Lucluc) had them... :lol:

Never heard any name for it...Over here there mostly on 340 GL's

Thanks to all of you - Lucluc is a cool name though for those rims.

Strange: I tried to google the serial number but didn't find anything about them. Maybe there were not so many made.

Does anyone know if these rims fit on any other Volvo model than the 300, since there are very few 300 volvos here in Iceland

they will probably fit a 480 and maybe a 440.
Other Volvos are nearly all 5 stud...
they are a common stud pattern though, so there are a lot of other small FWD cars they fit...I might be wrong, but I think they are Honda pattern also.

Volvo 300 series has PCD (Pitch Circle Diameter) 4x100, centre bore 52,1 mm and offset 40 mm. The PCD matches with many other cars, but the centre bore is smaller... It's usually a tight fit, so it's questionable whether the rims will fit even a 54mm bore as used in many Japanese cars (some Mazda, Suzuki, Toyota models). And I'm quite sure that the VAG 57mm bore is out of the question.

And yes they should fit in a 440/460/480 Volvo.
