1991 Volvo Coupe pg. 61 Wheels and tires (cont.) Wear indicator The tires have a so-called "wear indicator" in the form of a number of narrow strips running across or parallel to the tread. When approx. 1/16" (1.6 mm) is left on the tread, these strips show up and indicate that the tire should be replaced. Tires with less than 1/16" (1.6 mm) tread have a very poor grip in rain or snow. When replacing worn tires, it is recommended that the tire be identical in type (radial) and size as the one being replaced. Using a tire of the same make (manufacturer) will prevent alteration of the driving characteristics of the vehicle. To improve tire economy: ● Maintain correct tire pressure. ● Drive smoothly: avoid fast starts, hard braking and tire screeching. ● Tire wear increases with speed. ● Do not change wheel location unless necessary. ● Correct front wheel alignment is very important. ● Unbalanced wheels impair tire economy and driving comfort. ● Hitting curbs can damage the tires and/or wheels permanently. Flat spots All tires become warm during use. After cooling, when the vehicle is parked, the tires have a tendency to distort slightly, forming flat spots. These flat spots can cause vibrations similar to the vibrations caused by imbalanced wheels. They do, however, disappear when the tire warms up. The degree to which the flat spots form depends on the type of cord used in the tire. Remember that, in cold weather, it takes longer for the tire to warm up and consequently longer for the flat spot to disappear. Snow tires, snow chains Tires for winter use: Use snow tires fitted to the standard 15" wheels. Suitable tire size: 185/65R15 or 175/70R15 on all four file:///K|/ownersdocs/1991/1991_COUPE/91coupe_60.html (2 of 4)12/30/2006 9:00:47 AM
