What Volvo approves

Volvo

Volvo-approved tires are marked VOL, and VOL with a foam symbol on the quieter versions.

Volvo's approval is weighted toward wet braking and cabin noise. On the Recharge models the approved tire usually carries acoustic foam, the same idea Tesla uses.

Brands that carry the approval

Michelin Continental Pirelli Goodyear

Written on the sidewall as: Michelin Pilot Sport 4 SUV (VOL), Continental PremiumContact (VOL).

The drawing carries the sizes we list for this car, so you know what you are looking for. The placard on the car is still the final word, and it is the only place that gives the cold pressures: the number molded into the sidewall is the maximum the tire can hold, not what your car wants.

What those tires cost

Volvo XC70 tires: common questions

The most common original size is 235/60R17. Other model years and trims use different sizes, so check the list on this page and confirm against the sticker inside your driver's door.

You can, within limits: the overall diameter should stay within about 3 percent of the original, and the load index and speed rating must meet or exceed the door placard. Anything further changes your speedometer reading and can rub at full lock.
