Fitment comes from each tire'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 NCT5 245-40-18-W BMW M530D 108,000 miles August 10, 2010

Initially as a company car, the Fleet Dept had these fitted as standard and advised, as it was my first time with RF's, to stay with Goodyear. A full set in B68 vicinity is ?1100 as a private owner, now.

I am a motorway driver with a sad propensity for driving up my MPG. Over the past 45k have averaged 47mpg.

The tires on the M5/M6/M40/M42 have been quiet and have quite good grip in the dry. Wet is pants, even given very light right foot action. Almost no perceivable noise, even at higher speeds on non-asphalt surfaces.

Tires bought at 87k miles and still look OK at 108k - some signs of ageing though.
