The tire model of the Volvo XC60 is 235/50R18, paired with a 6-spoke aluminum alloy wheel design that easily evokes the image of a rotating flywheel, exuding a strong sense of fashion. The non-full-size spare tire is placed under the trunk, which can meet daily driving needs. The XC60 is a mid-size SUV under the Volvo brand, with body dimensions of 4688mm in length, 1902mm in width, and 1658mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2865mm. The exterior design features Thor's Hammer headlights and a flat front face, which are classic Volvo designs with high recognition. The interior design also follows Volvo's family style, showcasing exquisite craftsmanship.

I drive a Volvo XC60, and its tire specifications actually vary depending on the model year and trim. My 2021 Inscription Luxury edition came with 235/60 R18 tires from the factory, but my friend’s R-Design version has 255/50 R19 tires. In these numbers, 235 is the tread width, 60 is the aspect ratio, R stands for radial tire, and 18 is the wheel size. The easiest way to confirm your car’s exact tire model is to crouch down and check the small print on the tire sidewall or refer to the vehicle manual. When replacing tires, it’s recommended to stick to the factory specifications—otherwise, the steering feel may change. For a comfort-tuned car like the XC60, pairing it with quiet tires makes for a smoother ride.

Last week, I just replaced the tires on my XC60 at home. The original tires were Pirelli 235/55 R19. The tire specifications for such luxury SUVs can be quite complex—base models might come with 18-inch rims and 235-width tires, while higher trims can go up to 21-inch rims with 255-width tires. Remember, the number after 'R' is the most critical as it directly affects the rim size. When choosing new tires, I specifically went for Michelin Primacy 4, considering this car often cruises on highways where quietness and wet traction are particularly important. Tire pressure is also crucial—around 2.5bar when cold is ideal.

As a mechanic who frequently works on Volvos, I'm very familiar with the XC60 tires. There are three common specifications: 235/60 R18, 235/55 R19, and 255/50 R20. It depends on the specific model - the Momentum trim usually uses 18-inch wheels, while the top configuration may come with 20-inch ones. When replacing tires, always remember that tires on the same axle must have identical specifications and tread patterns, otherwise the AWD system might throw fault codes. Recently, many owners have been coming in to switch to Continental UC6 tires - this tread pattern offers good water drainage and wear resistance, making it ideal for daily commuting.

What are the techniques for making a right-angle turn?

The technique for making a right-angle turn is as follows: when the vehicle enters the test area, keep the one-third point of the right side of the front of the car aligned with the edge line, which ensures the right wheels are 30cm away from the edge line; when turning, as soon as the small triangular window pillar on the left front door aligns with the protruding point of the right angle, quickly turn the steering wheel to the left as far as it goes; when exiting the turn, align with the exit and quickly straighten the steering wheel, then continue forward until the vehicle completely exits the right-angle turn, completing the maneuver. Process for right-angle turns: In the Category 2 driving test, you need to manually turn off the turn signal after a right-angle turn, but in normal driving, turning the steering wheel back in time will automatically turn it off. Generally, when passing through a right-angle turn, you need to activate the turn signal before turning. As you straighten the steering wheel after completing the turn, you will hear a "click" sound, indicating the turn signal has automatically turned off, eliminating the need for manual intervention. Precautions for right-angle turns: During the right-angle turn test, maintain first gear throughout and avoid pressing the accelerator; when entering the test area, stay close to the right curb; once the curb directly ahead is obscured by the hood, turn the steering wheel to the left as far as it goes; align the front of the car with the exit and straighten the steering wheel.
