Vredestein Tires

I use all-seasons, and I've had Vredestein, Michelin and now GoodYear on a V50. Michelin was the nicest, Vredestein was good too (and very local to me :-)) but bad for mileage.

Pros: good all-season tire
Cons: bad for mileage
Vehicle: Volvo V50

OEM Volvo Timing belt kit

Rating 5.0

VERY VERY IMPORTANT! get a quality timing component kit! The cheap tensioners WILL fail. I buy and fix Volvo's that have jumped time and wrecked the engine, and they all have a new timing belt kit on them.

Pros: quality timing component kit
Cons: cheap tensioners WILL fail
Vehicle: Volvo

Loving my Vredestein Hitracs. Feel great, super quiet and cushy, but still really grippy and confidence-inducing in the rain or in corners.

Pros: super quiet and cushy

Recommend Michelin defenders over pilot sport. Got them on my ‘16 XC90 and never looked back

Quiet, comfy, grippy enough for the 90

Pros: quiet, comfy, grippy

Rating 1.0

I'm chasing a cylinder 3 misfire in my S40 right now. I'd put new coils and plugs in two summers ago, but when I pulled that one to check it, the coil came apart and the plug electrode was heavily eroded.

Cons: coil came apart, plug eroded

BRIDGESTONE Tires

Probably would not recommend these tires after having them for a couple years on the S60 and about 15 months on our XC70... The XC70 just went in to the tire shop because we had some sidewall damage (accidental curb strike) with only about 11K miles on the tires. They measured tread depth and it seems they were about 70% gone.

Pros: good winter traction
Cons: fast tire wear
Vehicle: Volvo S60
Mileage: 11000 km
