Hi All,

I have just bought a used (2012) V60 DRIVe R and I need to sort out a spare wheel as I drive a lot. It has R8 tyres (tires for US cousins) on it but I have only seen R7s or R6s on eBay, some questions:

1) Would an R7 Spare Space-saver Wheel be OK on a V60 DRIVe R (as it would only be on for a temporary period)?

2) Do I need to get a new Boot (Trunk for US cousins) insert for the tyre to fit or would it fit in the standard boot inlay that comes with the car?

Cheers all (first Volvo and I love it).
