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.

What Peugeot 206 cc drivers say
The most recent owner reviews from this car, in their own words.
I was a bit afraid of this budget tyre but having used it for one winter season I don't regret it at all. Driven about 15.000kms mostly on European highways and country roads, sometimes in deep snow, I had no issues. At the limits it makes a smooth transition into a slide. The only negative thing is that they are a bit noisier than I was hoping for, but hey, this is a winter tread after all. After this season, the driven front tyres had lost 0.5mm of tread.
Someone here mentioned hard rubber. I get the impression that GT Radials are of softer rubber than many - hence stopping distances and cornering grip are impressive, but wear rate is greater. However if they cost 70% what others do, and last 70% as long, then I'm very happy to have the extra margin of stopping safety for nothing, in effect. I haven't noticed the noise issue on these or other types of GT Radial.
Bought a pair to replace my front tyres, superb value for daily use. Grip is good for both dry and wet condition, road noise is alright as long as your are nor driving above 80mph.
Peugeot 206 cc. Showing 3 mm tread left on front tyres after 14,000 miles. So what you gain on the swings you loose on the roundabouts and probably sums up the tyre characteristic for wet driving. ie soft
Rear tyres have Goodyear Eagle NCT 5 fitted and have 7mm tread left after 32,000
As second owner I noticed previous front tyres were Vredstien that lasted 30,000miles!!!

These were fitted to my wifes car when we brought it and I havnt been that impressed.
In the dry they seem to be perfectly adequate for normal driving but in damp and wet conditions they are poor and grip fades very quickly indeed.
Ive not driven the car on a decent set of tires but I think that on tyres with better wet grip it would be a totally different experience.
That said wear and noise do not seem particularly bad and my wife seems happy to drive on them as she is quite cautious anyway.

Instantly 100% better than the no-brand budget tyres that were fitted when I bought this car. Rainsport were not available in the right size, damn. However, these are quiet, comfortable and in the recent snow/ice they were gave plenty of grip and confidence. I paid £50 a tyre (ex VAT) and I class that as a bargain.
The irony of fitting wet weather tyres to a convertable is not lost on me.
