I would go with some windstar rims. I have seen a few around here with some really nice looking Chrome rims. They look like 16's. they have the same bolt pattern, not sure about offset.

Always keep an eye on eBay. Don't just search for wheels that fit the SHO, do a search for all wheels. I only paid...wait, nevermind, let's just say I got a killer deal, and the thing is, they didn't turn up on a search for SHO stuff. Good luck.

I have an easier way to get rims...and cheaper!

All you need is...
1.) Four cinder blocks,
2.) a few lug wrenches,
3.) some "spotters",
4.) a dark night

Have fun!

The 17 x 8.0" Borbert type E rims that I have are not an SHO fitment. They were listed for a Volvo S80 T6. Most of the FWD Volvo's have the same 5 x 108mm or 5 x 4.25" lug pattern as the Taurus/Sable/Continental/Windstar as well as the older T-Bird/Cougar. The Volvo's hub bore size is about 1 to 2mm larger than the Taurus but the offsets are almost identical. Check out the wheels offerings at Discount Tire and the Tirerack using the Volvo FWD applications.

Just remember that you need to use some extra care when bolting up a set on non-hubcentric wheels on your car. I use a 4-step hand tightening process (with a torque wrench) in the proper 5-point star pattern; seated finger snug, 50 ft/lbs, 75 ft/lbs and then 100 ft/lbs.
