Heck yeah it does! Them 17"s? Hard to tell for me, as I think everything above 16"s looks even larger on P90s. I remember when the A first came out. I was driving a white A1 Rabbit at the time, and wanted a set. In white. The white Satellites on my present car is me trying to relive my youth.
Doing what I never managed to accomplish. I wasn't money enough, but I was going to get a set of white GTI snowflakes that came on some Cabriolets then, but wrecked the car before I could do it. Hope to catch you on the road again soon.

@fatcatbestcat -- I should mention I really like both cars you posted yesterday. I long preferred 740 sedans over 940s. I thought the facelift, while good in it's own right, was more modern than I wanted (and for good reason, since Volvo was trying to pass off a dated platform as a new model). In the last couple years, I've really warmed up to the sedan. Probably because after owning mine, I can appreciate the P90s as a really good car, rather than a more attainable alternative to the classic 240. In fact, your car might have been one of the ones that turned me around. I remember the moment. Probably in this thread, but maybe it was Reddit. I know it was a darker but bold color like red or black. Anyway, good place to put a set of Geminis.

And that grey wagon. The Hydras look right at home on it. Not my usual thought when I see a 2 on them. Probably the grey color. Reminds me that I have a set in the basement that need a refinish so I can put my Nokians on for the winter. They were originally going to be my summer set (in white--sorry purists), but procrastinating as I do, I waited too long, and had already sanded and primed the Sats over the winter. The Hydras need more work. There's some corrosion. I'll probably end up mounting the snows on the Satellites, which will force me to do the Hydras by spring. I'm not going back to the steelies.

Anyway, if the 240 is indeed a POS, you've covered up the stink well.

Yeah they were 17x7.5 iirc I also had a pair of white ones. They were all 5x108

These have to be my favorite wheels though
