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.

Kumho Solus Vier KH21 205-65-15-V Citroën XM V6 24 valve 3 litre series 2 25,000 miles December 22, 2013
has been in use three years, front tyres wear much more and need to change, rear still good. After two years tires become hard, more noisy. This month changed them all to conti TS850 - difference is huge especialy in comfort, fellings like I get another higher class of my car.

Car Citroen XM V6 24 valve 3 liters

Exceptional tyre. I drive hard. ( I am a (motor)bike rider and a pilot after all). The grip is exceptional.

The Citroen is a clever car with its antirole hydraulics. On the limit the only thing the car/tyre seems to do (on the clever Citroen) is to give tiny like little bumps (not skips/hops or anything far out). The handling is always responsive....and infact you dont have to correct anything.

(on *other* tyres the tail gets happy and this is a front drive car)

This is a front drive car-- yet throwing it into corners at excessive speeds (in safe areas) results in the Citroen still going around the corner......but feeling little tiny bumps from *all* wheels---front and back.

For a long time I actually thought it was impossible in the dry to exceed the grip.

Only downside is a bit of "roar" noise. Lasted 14000-15000 miles depending on tyre.

I always buy these now- 4 years of using only zz3's.
I have hit the mother of all potholes (sharp edges on side) and it has gone through the upper sidewall and punctured tyre. I have hit seveal potholes over the years and have never had anything like this before...so I believe it would have happened to any tyre.

Summary....excellent grip wet and dry, reasnoble wear, but a certain amount of noise.
