Tyre size and manufacturer recco please

Bigfella666 · Apr 14th, 2020, 09:29

After 12 months almost to the day Saffy is now running near perfect !

Running as usual as a FWD dont know if I will ever get round to sorting the inevitable angle gear

Tyres are not far off depth limit so time to spend yet more $

She is currently on a mix of 215 and 225 / 45 !!!!!

I love P Zeros but at 9000 miles Of moderate driving and throwing away the fronts I shall take some persuading

Had Mich Primacys on my 850 T5 and quite impressed until they went out of shape with lots of trad left

As ever any views greatly appreciated

Best I've found so far on the front end of the last four Volvos have been Michelin CrossClimates which are not only very quiet but wear very well indeed they still had minimum of 7.1mm of tread left on the front tyres 9873 miles after being fitted....and I don't hang about!
