Summer and winter tires
● When switching between summer and winter tires, mark the tires to indicate where they were mounted
on the car, e.g. LF = left front, RR = right rear
● Tires with tread designed to roll in only one direction are marked with an arrow on the sidewall.
● Incorrectly mounted tires impair the car's braking properties and ability to force aside rain, snow and
slush.
● The tires with the most tread should always be at the rear (to reduce the risk of skidding).
● Contact a Volvo workshop if you are unsure about the tread depth.
Tire rotation
Your vehicle has no recommended tire rotation. The following information is intended to help you
understand why.
Tread set
As a tire ages and the rubber cures, front and rear tires set at different angles. Therefore, if tires are
rotated, the tread will eventually set at an angle that is a compromise. Even if ride, handling, and road
noise may still seem acceptable, they may not be optimal. Further, tires that are rotated, but not on a
regular basis, may actually cause more tire noise, faster tire wear, and unpleasant changes in steering feel
and vehicle handling.
A tire that can fully adapt to its position will provide better steering feel, lower tire noise, and better fuel
economy.
Braking stability performance
Your vehicle is driven mainly by the front tires, which will wear faster. This can be beneficial. Having
more tread on the rear tires will help reduce oversteer. Oversteer is when a vehicle wants to keep turning
because of momentum and dynamic forces on its suspension.
Suspension wear diagnostics
Every suspension needs periodic inspection and maintenance. A tire's wear pattern can be an aid in
detecting a suspension problem. Each tire, if left in place, tells a story about the suspension. Tire rotation,
on the other hand, could make suspension wear harder to detect. Early detection is very important,
because suspension problems can make tire wear worse.
If you do rotate your tires.
Please follow the tire manufacturer's recommendations, as outlined in the tire manufacturers tire warranty
pamphlet.
