No, I have 17" wheels (and 235/55 R17 tyres). This is, AFAICT, the basic spec for the model year. I'm not unhappy with it - the ride is lovely and compliant - but the steering and turn-in is a little vague. I've come to this car from an Audi A2 with 205/45 tyres and steering and handling like a go kart, and I'm not expecting the same from the Volvo - and I'm frankly glad to lose the Audi's hard suspension - but I think (hope) a slightly shallower, slightly stiffer sidewall might give me a little more precision on the steering side without sacrificing much of the comfy ride.
