If one of the front tires needs to be replaced
with a spare tire:
1. Use the spare tire to replace the rear tire
on the same side of the vehicle as the flat
tire.
2. Move the rear tire to the front to replace
the flat tire.

Snow tires
Snow tires are designed for winter driving
conditions.
Volvo recommends snow tires with specific
dimensions. The tire dimensions vary depend-
ing on engine type. When driving with snow
tires, the correct type of tires must be moun-
ted on all four wheels.
NOTE
Contact a Volvo dealer for advice on the
best choice of rims and tires.
Tips for changing snow tires
When switching between regular tires and
snow tires, mark the tires according to which
side they were mounted on, e.g.
L for left and
R for right.
Studded tires
Studded tires should be broken in by driving
500–1000 km (300–600 miles) slowly and
gently to help the studs settle properly in the
tires. This gives the tire, and especially the
studs, a longer service life.
NOTE
Regulations regarding the use of studded
tires vary from country to country.
Tread depth
Road conditions with ice, slush and low tem-
peratures place considerably higher demands
on tires than summer conditions. Volvo there-
fore recommends not driving on snow tires
that have a tread depth of less than 4 mm
(0.15 inch).
