Dress Up Wheels for the 850 850 1993

I am the proud owner of two 850's now with the addition of the second over the Christmas period (Merry X-Mas to me!). The 1994 GLE wagon I was lucky enough to purchase with the 17" Volan style wheels, unfortunately the new one 1993 850 GLT came with the standard 15" Cestus??. If its one thing I am picky about its the wheels, so I want to get into a set of 17" or 18" as soon as possible. I live in Japan, and there are a great deal of near new secondhands available to me. Having said that I am faced with two interesting issues I would like to throw out there for the forums comment....

1) The PCD of the 850 being 108 5H, has anyone bought/seen any PCD adaptors to cycle the bolt size up to the Japanese standard PCD of 114.3? If so how do they attach, can the studs be removed from the hub of the 850? Do shorter studs attach them?

2) What is the standard and MAX offset for the 850? I can't seem to find any data on the web re this....I have the Volvo factory mags on the wagon and even they seem to hit on a full turn.

Any help/ideas would be appreciated.
