Any tire recs for 2006 XC70?

Hey guys. Wondering what tires you run on your P2s. Right now my 2006 is sitting on a mix of worn out tiger paws, an ironman, and one goodyear. Obviously less than ideal. Once my suspension is sorted out im planning on buying a fresh set of tires (either all-seasons or all-weather) I have no frame of reference... I read that the Michelin CrossClimate 2 might be a good choice but they aren't sold in my required size.

Also considering the Conti TrueContact Tour 54?

Any suggestions or help appreciated.

What did you do to your Volvo this week?

I'm waiting on brake parts from IPD. Hard line snapped due to a missing caliper bolt? I guess under braking force the caliper would pivot, twisting the line.

Can't find spring PN !!

Hello everyone. I'm planning on lowering my 2006 XC70 with factory V70/S60 AWD springs or something similar. Though i'm struggling to find any matching parts that are specific to the AWD trims. Looking through FCP Euro their parts all say they're for FWD vehicles, so i'm a little stuck. Any help is appreciated.
