the worst tire I had, no traction on dry and wet, and really bad braking. I do not recommend it!

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 406 Coupe 2.2 Petrol drivers say
The most recent owner reviews from this car, in their own words.
Bought a very low mileage 406 coupe that still had all four of its factory fitted 8 year old michelin pilots on!
Had the ZV5s fitted and they have transformed the car, Handles like it should now, so grippy, very assured driving on wet motorways, no sign of any wear yet after 3000 miles, £40 a corner cheaper than michelins too!
Nice to have the rim protection on these, a real bonus avoiding those nasty kerb scrapes that ruin your alloys.

Read the reviews from Saab/GM drivers so decided to give these a go. My Coupe has the 2.2 petrol engine so it is no rocket ship, but these fit the bill nicely for a realtively large front wheel drive coupe. Excellent grip, quiet and comfortable in the dry, and very good performance in the wet. They have handled the wet weather really well. Whilst they do look good, it is they way they match or exceed the performamce of premium tyres but for roughly half the price. Can't really say about wear but no early signs (balancing and tracking is essential whichever tyres you use).
