degree of road holding on slippery surfaces than tires without the "all-season" rating. However,
for optimum road holding on icy or snow covered roads - we recommend suitable winter tires on all
four wheels. When replacing tires, be sure that the new tires are the same dimensions, type (radial) and
preferably from the same manufacturer, on all four wheels. Do not use bias ply tires. Otherwise there is a
risk of altering the car's roadholding and handling characteristics.
NOTE: When storing wheel/tire assemblies (e.g. snow tires and wheels), either stand the assemblies
upright, or suspend them off the ground. Laying wheel/tire assemblies on their sides for prolonged
periods can cause wheel and/or tire damage.
Wear indicator
The tires have wear indicator strips running across or parallel to the tread. When approx. 1/16" (1.6 mm)
is left on the tread, these strips become visible and indicate that the tire should be replaced.
Tires with less than 1/16" (1.6 mm) tread have very poor grip in rain or snow.
To improve tire economy:
● Maintain correct tire pressure. See the tire pressure label on the inside of the fuel filler door.
● Drive smoothly: avoid fast starts, hard braking and tire screeching.
● Tire wear increases with speed.
● Correct front wheel alignment is very important.
● Unbalanced wheels impair tire economy and driving comfort.
● Volvo does not recommend rotating the tires. However, if tires are rotated, they must be kept on the
same side of the car so that they revolve in the same direction as before rotation.
● Hitting curbs or potholes 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 unbalanced wheels. They do, however, disappear when the tire warms up. The degree to which 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.
CAUTION: Cars equipped with All Wheel Drive
● The car must not be driven with wheels of different dimensions/ specifications or with a spare tire
other than the one that came with the car. The use of different size wheels can seriously damage your
car's transmission.
