    The 95+ 960s share the same bolt pattern, but unfortunately that car gained the different offset of the front wheel drive Volvos. A set from an 850 will work. A set from a 940 will not.
    The tire and wheel size is fine, 15" tires will fit just fine on that car with the correct rims.

      Er? Uh? No? A set from an 850 will have the same problem on a 940SE.

      You can get spacers to fit, but it is probably easier and cheaper to just find some proper wheels.
