Wheel/tires swap S60 to 740 (alloy) 700 1990

Good day all,

I would like some input please on an issue relating to wheels and tires.

I have a 1990 740 turbo with Volvo 16" alloy wheels.

I have been offered a set of free Volvo? rims and tires. I have been told they were taken off an S-60. They certainly look like Volvo
steel rims.

Would be major PITA to test by installation to see if they fit.

Anyone have input, WAG,experience, observation?

My spare is the original OEM steel rim so I can measure/compare.

I am expecting a glaring incompatibility

Details/rim,tire

New Rim label says: 16x6.5 5X108/43
New tire label says: 215/65/R16

740 rim is 16"
740 tire is 205/55/r16

TIA
jimB
