sorry about this, but I'm getting out of my league here.  A friend 
just bought a 1995 Volvo 850.  It needs tires.  It has 205/50R15's on 
it, TireRack.com says the right size is 195/60R15 and the owner's 
manual says 185/60R15.  First, I can't imagine putting 185's on a car 
that big but how can he figure out what the manufacturer's correct 
size is?  (to compute any potential speedo error, he'll probably keep 
the 205/50's on for summer and get 195/60 for winter)

He says that there is no B pillar sticker on the car.  I'm having him 
dump the contents of the glove box to find a glove box sticker...

Thanks, and back to cones...
