question about radial tire rotation on Volvo 850

Post by bluezero000 »

I just read on Haynes Repair Manual for Volvo 850 that radial tire rotation on these models MUST be done front-back. No left-right tire rotation is allowed. Is that right? Do they have directional wheels/tires? If so, how do I tell the tires are installed in the right direction in the first place? :? I don't trust the previous owner that much... Thanks in advance.

95' Volvo 850 GLT, Lots 'o' miles, 118k, Broke in just right.

90' Ford Ranger 4x4, Even more miles, 145k, Seat is broke in just right.

02' Ford F-250 Super Duty 4x4, 85k, Working on the first 100k
