The Volvo 850, an iconic mid-size car produced by Volvo Cars from 1991 to 1997, often includes a spare tire with its original equipment, essential for emergency roadside tire changes. This vehicle typically sports a full-size spare tire rather than a temporary or "donut" spare, providing equivalent performance, safety, and usability as the other tires on the vehicle. The size of the spare tire on a Volvo 850, mirroring the standard tire size, is commonly 195/60R15, which means the tire width is 195 millimeters, the aspect ratio is 60%, and the rim diameter is 15 inches. This size ensures a snug and accurate fit, allowing the vehicle to maintain optimal balance and handling when the spare tire is in use.
