Here are the tire brand associations that I know of:

Michelin / BF Goodrich / Uniroyal
Goodyear / Dunlop
Continenal / General
Bridgestone / Firestone

When I replaced tires on a 245, I bought Yokohama Avid Touring, 195/75R14 (to replace no longer available 185R14). The only thing to watch for in this case is that the maximum pressure for these tires is 35psi, 1psi less than the top of the Volvo-recommended pressure range (27-36psi front, 30-36psi rear). However, the tires do have a load rating of 92, which is greater than the load rating of 91 for the old 185R14 tires.
