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.

Vredestein Quatrac Pro 215-40-17- Skoda Rapid TDI December 13, 2024

Had a full set fitted to my remapped Skoda Rapid space SE sport 1.6tdi. Been running Goodyear Asymmetric 6's. Which were much better than the Continental's it came with.
Thought I'd go with an all season tyre this time . So far done 500 miles and they are exceeding my expectations. They are as comfortable ride as the Goodyear's. Possibly even better . Mpg seems not too bad just done a trip of 80 miles. On combination of motorway and A road's got 59.8 mpg. Weather was a bit mucky and cold average temp on the trip was 5'c tyre's felt good very safe feeling..

Vredestein Quatrac Pro+ 215-40-17- Skoda Rapid TDI 100 miles December 9, 2024

Just ordered a set of 4 vredestein quatrac pro+ 215/40/R17 for our skoda Rapid.Via Blackcircles fitted by Pro tyres Eastleigh. Ride appears to be comparable to the Goodyear Asymmetric 6's that we had been running on. Will see what they are like in the snow etc. All went smoothly.

Nokian Line 225-45-17- Skoda Rapid TDI 25,000 miles August 5, 2017

Bit sceptical when buying these and removed my old Primacy 3s . Very impressed with the tyres. Extremely quiet, stick well when warm and you can really throw the car around in the wet

Dunlop SP Sport 01 185-60-15- Skoda Rapid TDI 29 miles February 17, 2017

I've NEVER had the front tyres on a front wheel drive car last more than 22,000 miles, these front tyres have covered 29,000 miles and have still got at least 3,000 miles left in them. The rear tyres look like almost new and I'm willing them to do around 45,000 miles. Well done Dunlop :)

Bridgestone Ecopia EP150 185-60-15- Skoda Rapid TDI 31,068 miles November 8, 2016

These tyres are economical and ecological but on the wet road are really dangerous.
If you cross the limit of the grip, you cannot stop sliding. Wear is bad also.
I don't recommend.
