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 SportContact 7 265-35-18 BMW M140i F20 4,375 miles May 21, 2025
Great Tyre but only lasted 7.000 km to completely bald.(5000 km to 1.6mm)
Tyre wear is horrible.
Just did a 1500km trip on motorway, starting at 1.6mm and finishing bald.
Grip is not worth the wear in my opinion.
Great on track, both withholding temperature and grip.

Kumho Ecsta Sport PS72 225-40-18 BMW M140i F20 1,000 miles May 2, 2025
Dry grip is excellent, same level as GY Asym6 I’d say.

I bit harsher and a bit noisier as the (very silent) Asym6, but the PS72 has a bit not direct/sporty feeling compared with Asym6

Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport 245-35-18- BMW M140i F20 10,000 miles September 18, 2024
This is the best road tyre I have ever used on my car. I used this tyre for every day driving, road trips and trackdays and it is absolutely amazing.
On daily driving the tyre is working absolutely fine and does have always grip. Except the temperature is below 10 degrees and it's wet. Than the tyre struggles with grip. The michelin pilot sport 4s is here better.
But on the another hand, the tyre is working also on a trackday very good. It doesn't have the ultimate grip like a cup2, but it is consistent, and it doesn't overhead. The grip is high, and the tyre does not fall apart when driven hard. Also, the tyre wear on a track or on a windy road is simply amazing! Even when if you drift, the tyre wear is really good. I mean, when you drift, the wear is always high, but this tyre was able to take some hard beating!

I would definitely buy it again, but goodyear stopped to produce this tyre in my size.
But the feedback, the durability and the grip was absolutely amazing for a road tyre!

Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 245-35-18- BMW M140i F20 8,000 miles March 25, 2024
Very good all round performance. They are better in terms of performance than my previous Michelin PS5. However wear rate is poor. They are worn out after only 8000 miles of steady driving on the rear. The fronts are about half worn, so it seems that to make them perform Goodyear have used a very soft compound. I would be happy to sacrifice some ultimate grip for longer life on my next tyres.

Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 245-35-18- BMW M140i F20 8,000 miles November 19, 2023
The way this tyre performs is exceptional. The limits of grip and adhesion are very high in all conditions. The tyre is also quiet ands comfortable. However all of this seem to have come because they are made from a soft compound and they wear pretty fast. I don't drive particularly hard but at 8000 miles on the rear they are nearly on the wear bars. I will be looking to replace with something with more longevity, even if that means sacrificing some ultimate grip. The previous generation Assymetric 5 would fit the bill if I am able to source some.

Davanti DX640 225-40-18- BMW M140i F20 3,000 miles September 27, 2023
I bought my car with these tires. 225/40/18 front 245/35/18 rear. They were new, installed by the previous owner before selling the car. For shopping, commuting to work or short trips close to home, these tires are good. The problem begins when we want to go on a long trip on the motorway. After exceeding 60 miles per hour, the car jumps left and right on the road and a vibration can be felt in the steering wheel. It's impossible to balance these tires correctly. I am afraid to drive on the motorway because the car is completely unpredictable and drives as it wants. I can't imagine driving in heavy rain with these tires. The car is fast, it has 340 horsepower, and these poor tires make it no fun to drive. I do not recommend these tires.
