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.

Maxtrek MAXIMUS M1 185-65-14 Mitsubishi Lancer EX 2.0 MIVEC (MAN) 200 miles August 20, 2025
These would be good if it never rained. It does however rain. Dangerous hydroplaning and wheel spin under light acceleration during slight rain. Utter Garbage

I bought a used car(proton Inspira)which has these on and there's quite a lot of tread left about 60% but after driving it around for 6 month the performance started to get worse and worse and eventually one day when i was driving through the around corner the back slip and have absolutely no grip and i hit the divider

Yokohama Advan Neova AD09 225-45-17- Mitsubishi Lancer EX 2.0 MIVEC (MAN) 1,000 miles November 1, 2022
Surprisingly good on wet grip and very quiet for 200 treadwear tires. Dry grip and handling was very good, meet expectation. AD09 was a very civilize modern tires, it give you the dry grip and handling that what you want from extreme UHP tire, at the same time it does not sacrifice too much of daily comfort and wet grip.

Bridgestone Adrenalin RE003 215-60-16- Mitsubishi Lancer EX 2.0 MIVEC (MAN) 10,000 miles May 27, 2022
Great tyres, excellent dry weather grip and wet grip really surprised me as well. Wear rate is pretty good and they are a soft compound tyre so comfort is really good as well. Only downside I found is if you do any dirt driving at all these are not the tyres for you, it's not that they have no grip on dirt it is more the fact that they get cuts and stuff in them. In saying that, have never had a flat tyre in almost 2 years of daily use.

bought 2 tyres in June 2019 for the front wheels, its now March 2021 - i have travelled 21,122 klms in that time, plenty of wear left on the tyres. i feel the car is very unstable in the wet, slides out easily on corners and from standing start, i dont feel safe at all. the tyres seemed fine for quite a while, even in the wet conditions, but now very unsafe in the wet conditions. my driving style has not changed in the time i have had the tyres so i think they may have hardened in that time which i think would make them not grip in the wet anymore.

Aoteli P607 225-40-18- Mitsubishi Lancer EX 2.0 MIVEC (MAN) 10,000 miles August 3, 2020
I bought this tires and when it was new it was fine in the dry and wet however things goes downhill quickly about 2-3 months time and one time i rear ended a car and suprisingly i noticed the tire side wall had fail due to the emergency full brake stop i peform and that tire had failed resulted my car cant stop in time and resulted an accident. I guess you get wat u paid for as its a very cheap chinese tires,if u dont drive alot and your car isnt a high performacd car this tire should be fine though how ever i noticed this tires dosent give any early indicators its about to let go so becareful when going into a corner as by the time it let go it would be hard go regain control of the car again.

Hankook Ventus V12 evo2 225-45-17- Mitsubishi Lancer EX 2.0 MIVEC (MAN) 12,000 miles November 26, 2018
Pro - Tyre was imported from Korea but very affordable price. Dry was quite good, fast steering turn in, no issue for weekend B-road fun drive. Wet grip was quite good also, never facing skip or aquaplaning. Tire noise consider low for direction tire.

Con - Wear bit high

Falken ZIEX ZE914 EcoRun 205-60-16-V Mitsubishi Lancer EX 2.0 MIVEC (MAN) June 5, 2018
The big problem is the original dunlop 2050 nosiy harsh but give stability and nice grip when replaced with falken , first of all falken price is really affordable , car is mush smoother and quite , wet grip is acceptable but not perfect its not sporty it goes for quiet ride and comfort on corners not that mush confident comparing with dunlop but over all nice tyre , braking is okay even the traction is B , not sure it will last or no but its nice value for money

Toyo NanoEnergy 3 225-45-17- Mitsubishi Lancer EX 2.0 MIVEC (MAN) 25,000 miles March 21, 2018
Bought these tyres march 2016 so here comes the review after 40,000 odd kms:-

Dry Grip:- Fantastic. Similar to the first day fitted.
Wet Grip:- Pay attention to the tyre pressure. Drop the tyres a a few PSI's and it handles the wets very well.
Road Feedback:- A bit numb. But it is a touring tyre after all. It does tell you when it lets go albeit slowly
Handling:- It lets go progressively at the dry and wet. Very predictable
Wear:- Extremely well! Easily around 1.5cm's of thread left. I do rotate the tyres fairly regularly.
Comfort:- I've begun to find the tyre to much louder and crashier than before, to the point that I will be contemplating to have them swapped for 2 pairs of Kumho Ventus Primes (As recommended by tyre review). Again this is after 2 years of hot equatorial climates with rather rough roads in south east asia.
