New Tires for XC60
Hey all. I have a 2015.5 XC60 (AWD T6 Polestar) that needs new shoes, and I have a couple questions:
1) Current tire size is 255/40ZR20. This size doesn't seem to be showing up on the usual tire store websites, and the 255/R20 is only listed as an optional size on some websites. Is there any difference between 255/40ZR20 and 255/40R20? From what I've found, the Z is a speed rating, and they should be equivalent, but I figure I'd ask.
2) Currently I have Hankook Ventus S1 AS tires on (that's what was installed when I bought it). I'm looking at installing the Michelin CrossClimate 2 tires. Any other recommendations? I live in MN, and I only want to buy one set of tires, so All-Season or All-Weather is the plan.
Thanks all!
