I know there are a few different styles available (if you can find them). were there any 16" mesh wheels for the 240s?
These are in the wheel guide (they look like 14/15 though):

I think someone else has some nice ones though, they are $$$ kodiak i think.
so what do you guys know about mesh 16s for the volvo?

14"x6" Scorpius-X Came on 240 Classics, Super Polars, and were an accessory. (edit: yes,and the 91 SE, I always forget that one exists)
15"x7" Multi-X. Came on 780 Turbos and were an accessory.

Volvo did not make a factory 16" mesh wheel for RWD use of course.
Just looking at the board I've heard of probably a dozen companies that made mesh wheels that will fit well enough for us over the years. Its just what you can find on the used market.
I have seen the BBS wheels in 16", they made them for RWD Volvos until the mid 90s. I have seen aftermarket 16" mesh intended for Porsche wheels used on a couple cars.

no you cannot have them or buy them.
 
Those are Rikens, I had a set but did not feel like cleaning them up, re-polishing the lips and straightening two out. All 5 sold for around $150-2??. Look for a set of 15x7.5 Remotechs :-P .
