Default Just bought 2004 c70

Traded in my 04 Murano for the Conv. that I always wanted.
My other car is a GLI, so driving the Volvo is very different.
I must have read 200 reviews before buying this car.

Just a couple questions if anyone cares to respond.

The car has 17 all season tires with 7/32 left. Very rough over uneven surfaces. Will 16 tires help?

Also, front end seems to shake a bit with giving gas. From reviews it seems that might be normal

Lots of wind noise on highway with top up but only near passenger window? Is there an easy fix.

Thanks for the help & this site

Welcome to the forum. 16" tires won't make that much of a difference. Could be the rubber compound of the tire or they could need balancing etc.
