Unhappy 1992 Volvo 940gl tires

What size tires are supposed to go on this car? I really need to know. The previous owner put 205s on the front and 195s on the back.

I'm pretty sure that either are correct, but the specs should be written on the driver's side door in the jamb. Also the owner's manual if you have one. I don't know why previous owners take them out, but more often than not they do.

195-65-15. Being a RWD, as long as the tires are matching pairs, you won't hurt anything if they are not all the same, and if they don't rub somewhere. Still, I wouldn't have 205 on the front, 195 on the back.

I dont know what the previous owner was thinking when he did that, but I will be fixing it.

If it has 16's the size would be 205-55/16...if it helps, this tells me that you should have 205-60/15 or 195-65/15
