Fitment comes from each tyre's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

Continental WinterContact TS830 245-40-19- BMW 535d msport touring 1,000 miles October 8, 2018
Had these tires fitted for just over 1k Miles,
I do a 100 mile a day commute mostly A road and motorway at high speeds.
As soon as the roads begin to get a little moist I have to slow it right down on vends and roundabouts with my Factory fitted Goodyear runflats.
I purchased a new set of Alloys and these tires for a great price as the weather has just started to turn. All I can say is, what a difference to the car, it's almost as easy to drive the car on the motorway in a storm as it is in the sunshine. The car is stable giving lots of feeling and basically moves the standing water out of the way, it is amazing. The car sticks on roundabouts etc, really really gives me so much confidence, which I never had before with the big Beemer. In the dry when the temps is over 10 degrees ( I have put them on slightly early) the car feels slightly wobbly and less firm, as these are not runflats and are obviously softer.
I can forgive this for the amount of confidence I get in the bad weather.
Actually hope it rains and freezes now when I wake up just to be amazed yet again.
Just as a suggestion, UK drivers, wether you choose these tires or not or are considering winter tires. Don't delay get them fitted they will literally transform your bad weather driving experience for the better.

Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 245-40-18-W BMW 535d msport touring 15,000 miles February 14, 2018
I replaced Dunlop runflats with these Asymmetric 3 245/40 R18's and the difference in ride comfort, grip, both wet and dry, and feel was night and day. The only issue I encountered was it took approximately 1500 miles to bed in which for my mileage was a little under two weeks. During this period they were a little skittish and would have the traction control stepping in on occasion where previously it didn't. Once worn in however, they are simply brilliant, much like the Asymmetric 2's I had on my previous car. Economy was up enough to notice a difference, noise was far lower than the runflats and comfort massively increased. I'm a bit surprised the rears need replacing after 15000 miles but that is par for the course when you have 700NM going through the rear apparently (although the fronts still have 5mm left). Despite this for the performance, price and confidence they inspire I'll be replacing them with a new set soon.

Nokian WR A3 245-40-18-V BMW 535d msport touring 2,000 miles April 4, 2017
BMW 5 RWD 3.0 diesel, driving high speed in winter Lithuanian coast conditions, usually not to much snow, but ice, wet roads and some snow ocassionaly. Highly recommend A3 for sharp and fast driving in variuos conditions, comfortable as well. I feel confident with these tyres even with rear wheel drive car.

Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 245-35-19- BMW 535d msport touring 2,000 miles August 16, 2016
Als ich das Auto kaufte, war nur billiger Mist dran und ich wollte einen guten Reifensatz für ein besseres Fahrgefühl in den Kurven. Diese Reifen vorne drauf sind eine 100%ige Verbesserung. Sie sind viel leiser und haben mehr Grip bei Trockenheit und doppelt so viel Grip bei Nässe. Jetzt möchte ich auch meine billigen hinteren Reifen tauschen. Habe an Bridgestones oder Falken gedacht. Hat irgendjemand einen Tipp für mich, was ich nehmen soll? Ich möchte keinen Runflat, aber einen relativ langlebigen für hinten, da es ein E61 ist und ich häufig ganz schön viele Sachen damit transportiere.

I had cheap budget crap on when I bought the car I wanted a good set to make the car feel better in the bends and these tyres on the front are 100% improvement from what I had on they are much quite and have more grip in the dry and twice as much grip on the wet I am now looking to change my rear tyres from budget ones was thinking Bridgestones or falken has anyone got recommendations for me to go with I want a non run flat but quite long lasting for the rears as its a e61 and I carry quite a bit of stuff in the back regularly

Yokohama W Drive 245-40-18- BMW 535d msport touring 8,000 miles December 6, 2014
Had these on my 535d last year, stored over the summer and back on this winter. In temps ranging from 11c to 0c the car is dangerous. Traction control light on the whole time, and like the driver of the 335d Touring, the rear end has no grip and fishtails like mad (that is until t/c cuts in). Genuinely think that these are the most dangerous tyres I have ever had.

Best budget tyre I've ever had, even works ok in snow. Very good feedback in wet weather and wear is about average.
