Badly treated rims are usually not a good sign for the general condition
of a used car. They are usually the first thing I 'm looking at to
determine how the car was treated in general. Did you check the
geometrie of the suspension before you bought the car?
Where I think you are right: 16" are usually more comfortable than the
17". They have also much less the tendency to follow bumps on the road.
They are also cheaper to purchase.
The other thing is the look. 17" look much better and fit nicer in the
wheel wells than 16" ;-)
Personally I would in the first place contact a Volvo-Dealer and give
him the opportunity to offer real Volvo-wheels.
