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.

Bridgestone Adrenalin RE003 225-45-17- Ford Falcon BFII XR6 25 miles January 24, 2025

I bought 4 Bridgestone Potenza Adrendlin RE003 tyres for $305 each back in 2022 for my Ford Falcon XR6. I had them for 2.5 years, they were good tyres however the wear was poor only 25,200 kms for such an expensive tyre which is very disappointing. Won't be buying these again.

My previous tyres performance:-
4 Hankook tyres Ventus S1 Noble 2 H452 28,000 kms (okay for the price)
4 Pirelli P1 Cinturato 51,000 kms (best tyres ever, just too expensive)
4 Dunlop SP Sport 01 22,000 kms (I will never buy these tyres again)

Pirelli Powergy 245-40-18- Ford Falcon BFII XR6 2,000 miles February 25, 2024

thy are a very bad replacement for the previous tyres Dragon

Kumho Ecsta PA51 245-40-18- Ford Falcon BFII XR6 31,000 miles January 16, 2024

I found the Kumho PA51 to be a good quality tire with low road noise, very good dry weather handling, reasonable wet weather handling and good tyre wear. replacing the tyres on a FZord Falcon FG Mk2, coming up to 50,000 km but probably should have changed 5k ago.

Maxxis M35 Victra Asymmet 235-45-17- Ford Falcon BFII XR6 3,000 miles April 4, 2013

Loud, uncomfortable, lumpy, not good! Horrible acceleration/braking grip in the wet. No confidence in these at all.
