Tire options for 2001 v70 xc V70-XC70 2001

posted by  someone claiming to be sharpeirescue on  Tue Dec 17 03:20 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I have 37,000 miles on my car. ONe of my tires developed a bubble (?) from impact. According to the specs for the tire size: the only tire that fits is a Pirellie (excuse my spelling).

It is something like 215/65r/H... can I go to a 225 because it would open up so many other options.
THe Pirellie for my car is backordered for a month.

THe manual requires you to change all four otherwise I could experience transmission problems. They do allow you to change 2 ..kind of.

OF course, maybe my dealership might have them, but then they cost $250/per and I get no road hazard or any benefit. Where as Sears sells them for $152 (of course has specials)

Has anyone been down this road and used other sizes?
