HI Smadkins29 re to your reply the thing being for the first instance you dont know if the tyres are volvo fitment so to go of max or min psi on a tyre that was not a volvo fit wont do .The tyre fitted at manufacture is Pirellip6000 the psi that volvo recomend for the car from new is what i am after . Regards Trev

The sticker says "V70 Turbo". So these specs are for the Station Wagon/Estate, hence the "V" and I'm sure that Volvo wouldn't just stick any random specs on the car. If you aren't using the original spec tires, then I suggest checking with the manufacturers for the correct pressure.

Cheers.
