Re: Tyre type - SUV or car?

Now as regards the Volvo label it's because the geometry of the suspension was taken into consideration when designing the tyre. I’m intrigued, could you share the source of this information? As far as I know it's what we have been told from my employer as common knowledge within the tyre industry....

Re: Tyre type - SUV or car?

I have fitted cross climate 2 104 H 'vol' as they were at one time standard fitment and they are great especially when pulling 1.5 ton caravan in a very muddy field!
