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.

Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 225-45-18- Volvo V40 T3 Cross country 20,000 miles October 16, 2024

Got a full set of A6, I now need to replace the two front tyres after 2 years and approx. 20'000 miles. I am driving a Volvo V40 Cross Country, I tend to try gentle but fast.

The wear of the tyres ended up being stronger on the inside, maybe they weren't perfectly balanced after sustaining a nail in the tyre a few months back.
Just in the process of ordering 2 new A6 tyre for the Volvo.

The back tyres hopefully have another 10'000 miles in them.

Pirelli Cinturato P 7 Ecoimpact 225-45-17- Volvo V40 T3 Cross country 7,500 miles October 21, 2019

Pirelli Cinturato P7 Ecoimpact were fitted to car when I bought it. I've found that they readily lose grip on: drain covers, smooth tarmac, tarmac sealant and smooth concrete such as multi-storey car parks. I feel I can't trust these tyres on corners. I cannot recommend these tyres and will replace with another brand. I've driven V40's with Michelins and Continentals, they handle better than these. Avoid.

Pirelli Cinturato P 7 Ecoimpact 225-45-18-V Volvo V40 T3 Cross country 3,000 miles August 4, 2018

Not a comfortable tyre. Tend to lose grip on very smooth dry tarmac, though strangely not bad in wet, Car came with them, will replace with another brand when they wear.
