Bought 2nd hand for my ASA TEC GT4 wheels in 235/35/19. Fitted on my 2001 Volvo S80 2.4T with about 230BHP. They impressed me very much, and to be honest I didn't expect much from the tyre. But they are a good all round tyre and at the same being friendly for the wallet because 19 inch tyres don't come cheap (if you want some quality).
I don't ask the maximum from tyres, but they are confidence inspiring (in the wet & dry). Im from the Netherlands, the summers are getting a bit hotter, but there is still a lot of rain throughout the year. I will be replacing them soon as they have about 2mm left, but I enjoyed them a lot.

Fitment comes from each tyre's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

What Volvo S80 T4 drivers say
The most recent owner reviews from this car, in their own words.
In my view these are perfect touring tyres, by that I mean super comfortable, high mileage very, very quiet. Perfectly suited to big saloons, estates and those that do lots of motorway miles. If you value comfort and little road noise choose these. If you want a taught fine handling performance tyre you won't like these. Dry grip is excellent and wet grip is good but not inspiring, these tyres WILL let you throw a car around a corner but not they a taught handling tyres, they are at their best cruising where you should get 25,000 miles+ lufe
These are the worst performing tyres that I ever had in my whole life. The tyres are hard and bumpy. Considering the high prices one has to pay for these tyres and the performance of the tyres is definitely not one would expect.
I couldn't bear the noise and hardness of these tyres, as I had lost all the comfort that I suppose to get from my new Volvo. In the end, I removed all these tyres and replaced with GT Radial Champiro HPY. Now,I'm very happy and delighted after switching to GT tyres. These GT tyres are really value for money and they're "Y" rated i/o "W" rated.
