    Hi,

    What's the best tyre pressure for the Volvo 240, if handling is my
    priority?

    Regards,

    Han.

    Generally as high as you can go, should be listed in the tire itself.

    30 psi is acceptable, it's a tradeoff between handling and fuel economy vs.
    soft ride.

    I keep the tires on my 240 at 36psi... the ride is a little harsh, but I get
    good milage and the tires seem to wear well. Handling is good for a
    wagon....
