1 Answers
There are two tire size models for the Volvo XC60: 235/60R18 and 235/55R19. In 235/60R18, the first number 235 represents the tire width of 235MM, 60 indicates the aspect ratio of the tire section is 60%, meaning the section height is 60% of the width, and 18 stands for the rim diameter of 18 inches. The middle letter R denotes a radial tire. In 235/55R19, the first number 235 represents the tire width of 235MM, 55 indicates the aspect ratio of the tire section is 55%, meaning the section height is 55% of the width, and 19 stands for the rim diameter of 19 inches. The middle letter R denotes a radial tire. The original tires for the Volvo XC60 include Pirelli tires, Michelin PRIMACY-HP tires, and Continental tires. If you want to replace the tires yourself, you can follow the steps below: Take out the spare tire and jack, place the jack under the frame of the tire to be replaced, ensuring the jack touches the metal part of the frame. Raise the jack until it supports the car. The jack should be positioned under the vehicle, and ensure it is at a right angle to the ground. Remove the hubcap and loosen the nuts counterclockwise. Do not fully loosen the nuts; just enough to eliminate resistance. When loosening the nuts for the first time, keeping the tire on the ground ensures the nuts rotate instead of the tire. Turn the nuts counterclockwise until they are loose, repeat this step for all lug nuts, and then remove the nuts completely. Place the new tire on the wheel hub, carefully aligning the tire rim with the wheel bolts. Install the lug nuts and tighten them by hand until all nuts are snug. At this point, the tire replacement is complete. In addition to the model, tires also have the following common markings: Tire cord material: indicated by Chinese pinyin, such as M for cotton cord, R for rayon cord, N for nylon cord, G for steel cord, and ZG for steel radial cord tires. Speed rating: indicates the maximum speed at which the tire can carry a specified load under specified conditions. Letters A to Z represent certified speed ratings from 4.8km/h to 300km/h. Common speed ratings include: Q: 160km/h; H: 210km/h; V: 240km/h; W: 270km/h; Y: 300km/h. Rim specification: indicates the rim specification compatible with the tire for practical use, such as standard rim 5.00F.
