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.

Metzeler Racetec RR 225-45-17- BMW S1000RR 2,485 miles January 30, 2021
I have used this tyres for 4 months now on a s 1000 Double R. I have used the K3 compound they are really sticky tyres coming from the Dunlop Q3 which I used for over 4 years. The dry grip is really good and really confidence-inspiring on a hot day. On a cold day however, the tyres the do not inspire too much confidence and I have not push them in the wet because I have heard from other people that the wet grip isn't the best. I dropped the pressures to 34psi round and I had even more group which was fantastic something I had not experienced grip wise on the Q3s. The front tyre seems to wear faster than the rear. It also feels like a softer tread than the rear. Overall the tyre is good for track use and fast Canyon riding in warm weather.

Pirelli Dragon Supercorsa Pro 190-55-17-W BMW S1000RR 1,500 miles May 11, 2011
The Best Tyres for agressive street riding and perfect for a track day.

What I like most is the grip and the accuracy whyle leaning.
What I don;t like is the Wear, I am averaging 2,000km per set on road riding.
A tyre that I will for sure keep on bying.
