My wife's '96 850 GLT was totalled (she is fine (it's a Volvo!)).

We had not yet mounted her snow tires. They are  Gislaved 185/65 R15
on steel rims (part # 6819704 5). Can they go on my '98 S70?

Can't seem to find the information elsewhere online.

Thanks

what's the size on your S70 now?  195/60/15??  Then sure, that's what's on
my sister's car (Gislaved 185/65/15).  Skinny tires work a bit better to get
through snow.

Cheers... the wheels are the same as well, providing your S70 has 15s.

Thanks much! Yes, my S70 does have 195/60/15 at present.

They'll fit perfectly.
