Volvo 164 Tyres


Here is what Longstone Tyres recommends based on your Volvo 164 tyre needs:

  • Longstone recommends a set of 165-15 Michelin XAS for a pre-1972 Volvo 164.
  • Longstone suggests fitting the 180 HR 15 Michelin XAS for a post-1972 Volvo 164.
  • Our period Innertube Guides suggest that the 164 fitted tubeless wheels by 1972, unfortunately we don't have reliable fitment data from before this time. If you have a 164 manufactured before 1972 and know your wheel type, please get in contact so that we can provide the most accurate information.
  • For these tyres the Michelin 15E is the ideal innertube.

  • The Michelin XAS was constructed taking into account the different kinds of work done by the shoulders, sidewalls and different parts of the crown, depending on whether they are on the inside or outside relative to the car. Just like a person's foot is asymmetrical, the inside and outside of a tyre work differently to give the car good balance and sure handling.

History of the Volvo 164

Jan Wilsgaard created what would later become the 164 as a concept car dubbed the P358 and powered by a V8 engine in the late 1950s. The front styling was influenced by both the Wolseley 6/99 and the Volvo P1900, but most notably by the Ferrari 375 Agnelli, which also impacted the Jaguar XJ. Built between 1968-1975, the Volvo 164 was a 4-door 6-cylinder luxury sedan that was Volvo's first attempt at a luxury car since the Volvo PV 60 that was aimed to compete against the Mercedes-Benz 250 and Jaguar XJ6. In 1973 the Volvo 164 was updated with new styling of the exterior and interior, also offering heated seats as an extra.
