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.

Dunlop Direzza DZ102 195-50-15 Opel Corsa C 15,000 miles July 27, 2026

I bought these tires to replace a set of Pirelli Phantoms. Compared to the Phantoms, I noticed a slight loss in both grip and ride comfort. However, they still offer very good traction in both dry and wet conditions.

The compound is on the harder side, so the ride feels firmer and you can definitely notice it. On the other hand, the steering feedback is excellent, making the car feel precise and predictable.

Overall, they're a solid choice for daily driving and spirited driving, offering a good balance of performance, safety, and durability.

Continental PremiumContact 7 205-55-16 Opel Corsa D 1.4 22,500 miles March 2, 2026
Having covered 22k miles / 36k km with these tires, I can say that their performance in both dry and wet conditions is flawless, offering top-tier safety and grip. However, there are a few trade-offs to consider: while the handling remains excellent and among the best in its class, the relatively soft sidewalls mean that steering feedback isn't quite as surgical as some might expect, even if the overall control remains superb.

Furthermore, for a premium "top-tier" tire, the road noise is more noticeable than some of it's competitors, and based on the current wear rate, the total mileage is expected to be lower (around 46.000km) compared to other tires in this category. It is clearly a tire that prioritizes pure performance and grip over longevity and absolute cabin silence. Fantastic tire overall!

Michelin e.Primacy 195-55-16 Opel Corsa 10,000 miles November 9, 2025
Good comfort,ok in the dry,good braking but...
the handling in the wet, especially if the road tarmac isn't new is really dangerous! If you steer the wheel over a half round there is no grip!

Sava Eskimo HP2 195-55-16- Opel corsa d 1.3 cdti 15,000 miles October 17, 2024
I had used these eskimo hp2 tyres four and a half winter season. Now I am using third set of winter tyres and 4th set of summer tyres all with the same little car so i think i can compare between them properly. Since i was not so experienced driver, i had never knew that how bad a tyre could be! Because my previous winter set was the most famous french brand before eskimo hp2.
I would be pleased to say if only Eskimo HP2 have lost grip on the wet after 4 years which were already performed below an average tyre before and gripping on dry with EskimoHP2 was not better on the wet, as risky as on the wet road also braking. They are absolutely not comfortable tyres i could feel every gravel on the surface.
But not only these, we also match the snow. I went to a place on a dry cold night and it start snowing when i was coming back. On the main street 3 or 4 lanes, with almost an empty traffic luckly, i realize that it was hard to maneuver or braking like as using summer tyres. That night... oh that night my fellas.. i had not had an accident.
The main reason about these EskimoHP2, motivates me to write all of these, that night my snow experience was not after 4 years of usage, only a few weeks after i start using them..

Dunlop All Season 2 165-65-14- Opel corsa b 160is 300 miles October 12, 2024
Only driven a few hundred kilometers so far but the first impression is very good compared to the Kumho solus 4s ha32 that was on the car before. The tires tend to squeak when driving a little faster but have never lost grip so far. I have no complaints on wet roads either. I can't say anything about wear and snow performance yet. I would buy the tires again at this point.

Toyo NanoEnergy 3 165-70-13- Opel Corsa 7,000 miles February 23, 2024
Tyres are pretty reliable on dry surfaces. Little weaker on wet but it can also be to the suspension. Overall very peased with the tire and would recomend it. Because i don't have the car to drive super aggressive but i tried to come to that stage and they stuck to road really good.
Hope this helps.
