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 Volkswagen Jetta GLI Mk6 drivers say
The most recent owner reviews from this car, in their own words.
A very very good tyre. You can compare it to continental contiwinter contact ts850/860. They are as good. We have winters with lots of snow in Lithuania. And they cope with all winter conditions very good. Only they wear a little to fast.
While driving it on a powerful FWD car it is an allround good tyre. No major cons. Maybe because it is an american all weather tyre it is a little weaker in the wet. If you are trying to accelerate fast in the wet. But that is also common problem for a front wheel drive car with more power. All in all, a good tyre for its price and the wear is quite good after 41000 km there’s still about 5-6 mm of thread left.
