POLL: What tires do you have & how happy are you with them? 850 1995

posted by  someone claiming to be eric855glt on  Wed Jul 3 23:52 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Bought the car in summer 2000. Car was with original tire(Michelin MXV). Changed last summer for Yokohama Avid T4. Couldn't balance the wheels, probably went to my tire store 10 times to fix(they replace 2 tires but never fixed). After our winter I reinstalled those Yokohama and as soon as I went on the hyghway the vibration was back(always between 140-158 kph). Finally found a local Volvo mecanics that as soon as he tried the car said that it was not the right rating speed, I had T rating. He said tht Volvo need a minimum of H rated tires. I went back to my tire store and ask them to take back the Yoko, and install new H rated tire. They install Bridgestone RE 950 and the car is now perfect.
