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 Suzuki Swift 1.5 drivers say
The most recent owner reviews from this car, in their own words.
Average to poor in the dry.
Breaks away easily on roundabouts even in the dry if slihtly pushed.
Till date, this tyre at its price is one of the best performances for me.
The major drawback is no wet grip. I have fairly reasonable expectations of tyres on wet roads, I know there is a lot less grip available but these Nexen tyres are really poor. In a straight line they are just about acceptable but as soon as you ask them to turn and brake or accelerate at the same time there is no grip at all. Huge wheel spin in 2nd on part throttle (I'd don't have a powerful car or drive it hard). On the brakes the ABS will trigger as if you are on ice.
I've just replaced these tyres for some new mid-range ones of a different brand and the difference is huge.
