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.

Bridgestone Potenza S001 245-40-18- Subaru 2015+ STI 3,500 miles September 22, 2023
After 2 years and 3,500 miles the outside sidewalls of all 4 tyres began cracking and crazing on contacting Bridgestone I was given numerous "excuses" including u/v light,tyre dressing,short journeys and road contaminants in my reply I had to asked the technician why he had not including Covid and Climate Change amongst these comical excuses. I have previously run Bridgestone on my last 2 cars,both purchased from new, and not had any complaints but will now fit my car with Dunlop Maxx ,which were on the car when purchased from new and were good for 20k, something I regret not doing in the first place but I had always preferred Bridgestone until now.I can only add that the response and service I received from Bridgestone regarding the matter was pathetic and definitely not what I expected from a company of this stature!

Honestly, for grip never. Daily and regular car if you drive like a grandma kind of beats. Giving these tires some power already feels like you’re going to slip out.

Michelin Pilot Sport AS 3+ -45-17- Subaru 2015+ STI 6,000 miles January 7, 2022
These drive like a summer tire. They were 50% worn in 6k miles on a square setup on a stock HP 2019 Subaru STI. Once at 8/10th they started to get noisy and by 6/10th I found the hum annoying. In snow they were B to B+. I could get around...but I was in a Subaru STI...the best awd system perhaps out there.
