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.

Triangle SeasonX TA01 215-45-18 Suzuki SX4 1.6 LITRE PETROL 80,000 miles September 18, 2026

Had them for a long, but the front tires needed to replaced after 80000km’s.

The rear tires felt also not zo round anymore. And made a bit more noise compared when they were new.

But the tires were really good. Also in snow last year. Also have been to Switzerland with them on snowy highways. Good performance overall. Never felt unsave.

Bridgestone Turanza T005 205-60-16- Suzuki SX4 1.6 LITRE PETROL 20,000 miles April 19, 2023

very nice tyres. I have never had problems with grip or handling (sensible driving mostly). Rolling and fuel consumption were descent too. They generally felt a bit better than my previous michelins. I had to change them at 35000klm due ton unrepearable puncture from a screw, but they were too expensive to buy again. The wear was good enough to go for several months though.

Michelin Primacy 4 195-65-15- Suzuki SX4 1.6 LITRE PETROL 200 miles January 28, 2022

Great tires. First and foremost the grip is incredible in both dry and wet. Very comfortable ride, the tires absorb small bumps and road imperfections very well, made the car much more comfortable. Much quieter than anything else I had on this car (Toyo's and Dunlop's). The car doesn't feel "floaty" at all like others have reviewed, but the tires are very comfort oriented so the sidewall and tread are soft and so the tire feels a bit vague under aggressive cornering. It doesn't mean that they lack grip, just that the steering wheel feels a bit vague and not direct. So if you are looking for a sporty and direct tire look for something else. As I said there's plenty of grip and the tires feel quite progressive at the limit, there's plenty of warning before they completely "let go".

Nexen N Fera SU4 215-60-16- Suzuki SX4 1.6 LITRE PETROL 1 miles September 30, 2021

Bought a set of SU4s today after reading the positive reviews here. Been travelling on Michelin Primacy 3s until they were well worned (great tyres if you looking for long wearing tyres) and straight out of the shop felt the immediate difference. Rise was smoother and quieter, tyres cushioned the bumps and holes well but still had good feedback through the steering. Admittedly I just drove on them for less than 10km, looking forward to getting some good milage on them and see how they hold up. So far great start!

Toyo Proxes CF2 225-45-17- Suzuki SX4 1.6 LITRE PETROL 20,000 miles September 23, 2021

just had car MOT'd today - it was wearing four Proxes CF2s which I previously thought were good tyres. However the car failed on two of the tyres 'due to separation or failure of its structure' on two of them and an advisory on the others for perishing / cracking. Tyres were 2 years old, about half worn at around 20k miles. Fairly sedate usage Not going near Toyo again.

Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance 205-60-16-V Suzuki SX4 1.6 LITRE PETROL 25,000 miles March 14, 2020

I live in Chiloé Island, in Chile, South America. I drive both asphalt and gravel roads. The tyres have a nice design and all that but the performance of them is not the best. I used to have Bridgestone on the car but I couldn't afford them when I had to change them. So I tried with the Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance and I don't recommend them: they have weak lateral stability, understeer and long braking in the dry, elevated noise and tyrewear is a shame. They were worn out at 25.000 miles.

Dunlop SP Sport LM704 205-60-16-H Suzuki SX4 1.6 LITRE PETROL 2,000 miles March 14, 2020

I had to do this comparison because the previous tyres I had on my car were not good regarding the performance as the name claimed (Goodyear efficient Grip Performance) So I was looking for better tyres. And I found them with Dunlop. The design is nothing special, but it's got better grip, both on dry and wet asphalt. On concrete roads the grip however diminishes. I like the handling on curves, because the Goodyear EGP are quite soft on the sides so when taking a curve I could feel the car weight going on the opposite side of the curve. This doesn't happen with the Dunlop LM704. I don't have to use the breaks while approaching a curve. Ive tried emergency breaking and the tyres don't slip on dry or wet asphalt. I totally recommend them.

Pirelli Cinturato P1 Verde 195-65-15-H Suzuki SX4 1.6 LITRE PETROL 50 miles November 10, 2018

changed after 70.000 KM, very good value for money, offers a good balance between comfort and grip , so it's suitable for both city and highway driving , good braking as well, the only bad thing is that after about 20K KM it becomes harder and louder but, however, it has low wear and long life.
overall, excellent tires , recommended for normal everyday use, very good value for money.
i didn't buy them again because mine were made in Italy but now only made in Turkey is in the market and i'm not sure if it would be the same quality.

Dunlop Sport BluResponse 225-45-17- Suzuki SX4 1.6 LITRE PETROL 4,000 miles October 10, 2017

A newish set of these came with my Suzuki SX4.
They accentuated the cars hard ride, and the steering had a `sticky` feel in the straight ahead position.
They grip well on a warm dry road, but are very poor in the wet .It was very easy to spin the wheels pulling out into moving traffic on a wet road,(no traction control on the SX4).
I am no expert, but the tread design seems little more than slicks with longitudinal grooves, as the lateral grooves very quickly wear away from new.
I know this is contrary to the vast majority of opinion on here, but it is what I have experienced, and I guess the test comparisons are done on brand new tyres
I threw them out at 5mm, and fitted a set of cross climates, which provided the same kind of huge improvement they had done on my Saab 9-3.
Improved steering, wet grip, and ride, and much, much quieter
