1996 Volvo 850

Weight distribution affects handling 

 
At the specified curb weight your car has a tendency to understeer, which means that the steering wheel 
has to be turned more than might seem appropriate for the curvature of a bend. This ensures good 
stability and reduces the risk of rear wheel skid. Remember that these properties can alter with the 
vehicle load. The heavier the load in the trunk (max. 220 lbs, 100 kg), the less the tendency to 
understeer. 

 
Handling, roadholding 

 
Vehicle load, tire design, and inflation pressure, all affect vehicle handling. Therefore, check that the 
tires are inflated to the recommended pressure according to the vehicle load. See "Tire pressure" section.  
Loads should be distributed so that capacity weight or maximum permissible axle loads are not 
exceeded. 

 

WARNING! It is recommended that tire of the same make and dimensions be used on all four wheels 
(including the use of snow tires). Do not use bias ply tires as this will adversely alter vehicle handling 
characteristics.
