This happened just before Ford bought Volvo. Law firm got >$4MM. Volvo 850T/R owners with low profile tires got new set of tires, $500 or $1000 credit for new Volvo. Multiple discussions in the brickboard archives. Some listed below....

#1 I thought the wheel well rubbing was due to the design of the "early" 850 wheel well liners, but OCICBWAPA. (ofcourseicouldbewrongandprobablyam) I don't know about the other suspension components. Look in your owner's manual and on the sticker inside your gas cap to see if the 55s were factory issue on your car.
