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.

Michelin CrossClimate 235-45-17- Mercedes Benz B180Cdi 25,000 miles April 11, 2023
had these tyres on a mercedes b class great tyre but i was only doing short journeys they were not getting up to temp and started to perish between side wall and tread.I would fit them again if my usage changed,they were on for5 years and still had 4mm left when I changed them.Gone to a cheaper make all season tyre now. But i would highly recommend the cross climate michelin. Good all round tyre but exspensive

Pirelli Ice Zero 2 225-45-17- Mercedes Benz B180Cdi 1,000 miles December 1, 2019

Bridgestone Weather Control A005 225-45-17- Mercedes Benz B180Cdi October 31, 2019
44.000 ca. km in 13 months: excellent performances on wet and dry, quite sufficient on winter conditions usefull to rich your destination in emergency.
But bad comfort: the more you ride the more noisy, Only the first 10.000 km have been normal, after a disaster. During the last 4000 km were a strange vibration too on front axle between 120/130 kph, impressive.
I just replaced them now with new Crossclimate plus Michelin, excellent comfort, wear, and better winter although minor (a litle bit) dry and wet performances

Pirelli Cinturato AllSeason 225-45-17- Mercedes Benz B180Cdi 1,000 miles December 11, 2016
Bought Pirelli cinturato all season as a all you need tyre that's summer and winter but the main reason was seal inside which seal punctures but mine tyres 205/55/16 H did not come with seal inside mine tyres shop and Pirelli did not help me so beware if you chose these tyres.

Michelin Energy Saver 205-55-16-H Mercedes Benz B180Cdi 30,000 miles February 8, 2016
The Michelin Energy Saver tyres were factory fitted. Generally, they have performed well on dry and wet roads. However, they seem to be far too susceptible to tyre damage on not too perfect roads, which is now the average british road.

Put these on my wifes car and not once has she complained about understeer or any sticky moment she has with these tyres. When i have drove her car I have 100% conidence in these tyres. The drive is very nice on these tyres. They grip very well even in the rain.

Kumho Ecsta KU39 225-45-17- Mercedes Benz B180Cdi 12,000 miles June 24, 2013
Great tyre, and most certainly better than the Continental 2s & 3s I replaced. So far on my second pair, and they have outlasted the Conti's in miles, by a good few thousand. Car feels quieter, smoother, more comfortable. Great tyre all round and a reasonable price, would recommend and purchase again.

Continental Sport Contact 3 215-45-17- Mercedes Benz B180Cdi 10,000 miles April 16, 2012
Bought these to replace the fronts on my wife's car, thinking I should go with a good brand as she has the kids in the car. To be honest, im not overly impressed with them. Grip is fine, I cant fault them there, bu being a people carrier its not driven in a spirited way. Where I do fault them is on wear, its awful, car is setup fine, but these have buffed off on the corners bad and required to be swapped around. On the plus, they are not directional, so you can get away with left to right swap.
In contrast, previously I had an impreza for about 6 years, and that came with Nankang NS2 fitted from the dealer. Thinking initially these would be budget, they just lasted and lasted. The rears I never replaced, and sold with the car 6 years on and 34k later, the fronts only got replaced due to 2 damages to objects, but they would have pushed 20k I think.
So I have paid for Conti's and not impressed, driven budget and been surprised.

Hankook Ventus Prime K105 205-55-16-H Mercedes Benz B180Cdi 41,000 miles November 13, 2009
Have used these tyres on several cars I've owned as a good alternative to Michelin tyres which I consider to be some of the best available, and have found the Hankooks to have just as good performance and to last just as long (something I consider the tyre industry should do more about)
