Thank you all for your help and ideas.
Today I changed my wheels to a second set and I can feel like it's a little bit better. The tyres I had before were Pirelli 215/45 R17 from 2021. I had them on a balancing machine and saw that they are straight (unless there is a problem with them under load ...

Re: V70XC awd 1998 vibrations at 120km/h
I had similiar problem on 850 where i had all 4 brand new summer tyres with 40-45 g/ of weights per wheel on 3 of them and 70g on 4th one.
I had vibrations where whole car was shaking from 120-140km/h....so you could drive up to 120km/h or 140+.
Balanced them 5 times and every time was a bit ...

Re: V70XC awd 1998 vibrations at 120km/h
How much weights you have on wheels?
If you have 40-50 grams per wheel,wheels or tyres are bent.
Like others mentioned...it could be propshaft or coupling.
On two wheels I have more than 50g but I don't agree that it means i have bent rims or tyres. But I will start with changing the wheels ...

Re: V70XC awd 1998 vibrations at 120km/h
I did some research and found instructions on how to do it
I need the mounting plate 999 5971. I will just make it myself
But then i need balancing clamps. Any idea where i can get them? Or how can I balance it without those clamps?

Re: V70XC awd 1998 vibrations at 120km/h
Also, do you know if the viscous coupler has been out of the car or replaced? Every time you put it back in the car it needs to be balanced. There is a service bulletin from Volvo describing the procedure. This is often overlooked, but it does cause vibrations like you are experiencing.
Oh! I ...

Re: V70XC awd 1998 vibrations at 120km/h
Welcome to MVS Dzielnywojak123. Have you balanced the wheels or inspected the CV boots?
Hi :D
I did balance the wheels but i don't have anywhere near me a place to perform Hunter Road Force test (I also have 225 55 R16 on OEM wheels and i can try swapping the wheels)
One of my CV boot is ...
