Every time you visit Portland Volvo, we inspect your tires for wear, and if necessary, we'll give you an estimate of what your vehicle requires for proper tire fit. When making decisions about your tire purchase, remember that you should only install the proper rated tire (refer to your owner's manual) for your vehicle so that it will handle the way it was intended to.

Besides offering the right tire, when you need it, we also offer spin balancing as part of our professional installation. While you're here, don't forget to have your alignment checked to make sure your next set of tires last as long as possible. Improper alignment is the number one cause of premature tire wear.
