*shrugs* Meh, if you're happy with them that there's no reason not to stick with what you have.

Yokohama Advan A048 i thought they would fit but wanted to check before i bought a pair rear wheels for them thanks dave Nice tyres. I run AD08s on mine. Yes, as has been confirmed in this, and many other threads. The standard tyre sizes are 195/55/15 on the front and 225/50/15 on the rear. However...

Yeah you don't want to be putting water in there...

I've actually just dropped the pressure in my front tyres. It's made the steering heavier and is a pretty simple and easy solution.

What tyres are they? I run 205/50/15s on the rear of mine.

I think I have a powerflow exhaust for one...

I've been spying this on 't bay for a while now. If I had the dollar I'd have bought it...

I've never noticed myself putting it on, I think I must occasionally xxxx it when I change into fifth or something.

Ok. Well, I'm gonna submit an early contender for wally of the year award. Turns out I had my heater set to re-circulation rather than to draw in air. Now that I've actually engaged the brain and turned that off, it's drier than Dakar.

Win.

That's fine. My N/A survives 8-9k between oil services quite happily.

Yeah I'd call flooding too.

Bet they sound decent.

The ones that are standard on new Volvos are great. I don't know if they fit the 2 though... Don't see why not.

Well ladels & jellyspoons. It is fixed. After seven months of poke and hope diagnosis, the problem has finally been sorted. Only real reason I am writing here it so that should someone later on get a similar problem they can save themselves some time and money (and stupidity) that I've had to ex...

This has made me sad.

Do not buy xxxx tyres. You will wreck the car. This. I had crap tyres on mine when I bought it, and spent the first year of ownership trying to drive round them and find out what everyone was banging on about with these cars. If you're not hell bent on changing the looks of the car I find the stock...

This really should have gone by now...

Can make a shocking difference to how the car handles mind.

Before any mods i would start with a thorough check over and service; brakes, fluids, plugs, HT leads, distributor cap, rotor arm, suspension check, filters, O2 sensor, tyres, etc. I'd basically make sure everything is in good working order.
