Wheels and tyres
Tyres with tread wear indicators
Tread wear indicators are narrow treadless
bands across the width of the tread. On the
side of the tyre are the letters TWI (tread
wear indicator). When only 1.6 mm of tread
remains, this band is clearly visible. Change
the tyres as soon as possible. Remember that
tyres with little tread depth provide very poor
grip in rain and snow.
Winter tyres
Volvo recommends winter tyres with parti-
cular dimensions. These are stated on the
tyre pressure label, see page 135 for its
location. The tyre dimensions are dependent
on the engine variant. When driving on winter
tyres, these must be fitted to all four wheels.
NOTE! Ask a Volvo dealer which rim and tyre
types are most suitable.
Studded tyres
Studded winter tyres should be run in gently
for 500-1000 km so the studs settle properly
into the tyre. This gives the tyre, and
especially the studs, a longer lifespan.
NOTE! The legal provisions for the use of
studded tyres vary from country to country.
Tread depth
Road conditions with ice, slush and low
temperatures place considerably higher
demands on tyres than summer conditions. It
is therefore not recommended to drive on
winter tyres that have a tread depth of less
than four millimetres.
Snow chains
Snow chains may only be used on the front
wheels. This also applies to all-wheel-drive
cars.
NOTE! Never drive faster than 50 km/h with
snow chains. Avoid driving on bare ground as
this wears out both the snow chains and
tyres. Never use quick-fit snow chains as the
space between the brake disks and the
wheels is too small.
Important!
Use Volvo genuine snow chains or
equivalent chains designed for the car
model, and tyre and rim dimensions.
