Tyre Size: --- 15 Inch ---, Tyre Diameter: R15, Profile: 80 | Volvo PV444 & PV544 1944 to 1965

Well engineered, but quite old-fashioned in appearance, these models launched Volvo onto the world stage. Standard tyre fitment was a 590-15 crossply, with 165SR15 as a replacement radial size.

 

A four-seater saloon with unburstable reliability, and also some competitive talent. The initial 444 became the 544 with some remodeling of the exterior, and a little extra interior room. The designation change was intended to make it clear it was now a five-seater.

 

Had a remarkably long life alongside its intended replacement, the 120 series.
