Volvo Repair: Replacement Tires, yokohama tires, michelin tires
QuestionI've got a 1990 745 GL that has Michelin 185/65R15 tires that need replacing. My mechanic has a set of alloy wheels with new 195/70R15 Yokohama tires, and will give them to me at a great price. My question is what is the difference in the size and the handling? I really like how the Michelin tires handle at higher speeds and overall.
AnswerDebbie, are you sure its 70/15 and not 60/15? Ive never seen a 70/15 tire. Yokohama is a good tire. Michelins are by far the worse tires that are made. They used to be a great tire but now are just expensive junk that doesnt last 20 thousand miles. Your car will be fine with those. I just need to clarify the size. Roger
