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.

Federal SS595 SUPER STEEL 235-45-17- Mitsubishi Galant 16,558 miles August 5, 2022
These tires are great not to expensive but the quality and performance as very good it meets my expectations. I tried these tires on my Galant VR4 8th with a V6 engine twin turbo. I always drive fast and aggressively especially when the road is clear either it's straight or while on turn which pushes the tire performance to its limits. Yeah I know this sound kinda stupid but I assure you I only do this when the roads are clear mostly during dead hours like 12 mid night. From what I observe it's a bit quiet than the last tire I use which is GoodYear. The tire rolling is much better. I observed this during on neutral coast running atleast 100kmph on a straight road timing how long does it take before it slowed down to 80kmph, from what I have observe these federal last longer than goodyear's which is a good thing less drag from the tires. Cornering is much better as well wet and dry. Tested S curve Road @ Okada Manila near South Beach Place Westside City going to Cavitex Highway Road Goodyear tire. Cornering @ 100kmph I can hear the tires screaming loudly Federal tire. Cornering @ 100kmph no tire screaming at all. I tried going faster and faster on the corner till I heared the tire scream loudly @130kmph. Also what I have observe the acceleration was a bit faster than GoodYear tire since the rolling drag on Federal is much less 0 - 100kmph average of 6.4 secs Goodyear was around 8 secs Full specifications 6A13TT DOHC V6 24Valve Stock HP: 276 but tuned to 358 with stock turbo before. Full Exhaust System(CAT and Resonator Delete, HKS Chamber Muffler slightly modified for less exhaust restrictions remove some internal parts but still have the deep bass sound), Racing Filters and Remap.

Used on my car in 2007-2008. In dry and wet grip is poor, comfort ride and on bad road almost not feel the defects, wear is average for mid-range tire and i swap it when cracks show up. General is ok tiers but little poor.

Falken ZE912 195-60-15-T Mitsubishi Galant 2,000 miles August 24, 2020
In 2008 maybe 2009 I swap set of 4 tires brand new of this model (not sure but I remember the shape very good), dry grip is good and also in wet, pretty quiet and so comfort. But I got some major issue with this tires, after 2 years of use I start notice that the shoe rubber stat break apart, immediate I swap to other brand set. In shop thy was shock about that and don't know what really happen. Before that happen I did a balance for the steering. Looks like it was defective production or bad model.

Three A Farroad FRD 26 205-55-16- Mitsubishi Galant 5,000 miles August 23, 2020
Soft tires. For the price impressively quiet with comfort. For price comparison vs hankook ventus V2 & Federal which was my previous tires. By far better on wet grip & ride comfort.

Continental Premium Contact 2 190-60-15-H Mitsubishi Galant 10,000 miles July 20, 2020
This is my 2nd buy of this model and this tire proved as very good, i'm driving on 01' Mitsubishi Galant 2.0 ea2a 4g63 since 2007 until now (2020) and swap set of conti contact 2 two times and this is my experience: Very very good quality, i live in country with lot of sun and tires hold 5 years and still have good performence. Good dry and wet road grip, with distorted road is OK but not the best as Kleber or Goodyear tires, if you driving in smooth road this is the best tire, highway also is great ride but quite noise, even in lower speed (50-60 kmh). Wear is great and even after 5 years still have lot slots. after 2 swapping and total 9 years with this model i like to change for more comfort tires, still in my country not all roads is perfect and i need more softness ride. If in my country there was no 6 years limit law for tires, i was keep using my correct Conticontact 2. Thank you Continental for making very good tires and i real like it and definitely recommend it.

Vredestein Sportrac 5 215-60-16- Mitsubishi Galant December 30, 2017
Bought 4 new tires for my Mitsubishi Galant and used them for 2017 summer (2000 km).
The ride is pretty quiet, it handle ok. When cornering I feel the car unstable like sliding said way, or like driving on a waved asphalt. However I have never skidded.
The traction on dry and wet is good but not excellent. I have been reading that after a while they get better, but didn't use them too much, so I don't know if that's real or not.
The grip is good on both dry and wet road, never had problems when braking hard.
Does not seems to wear out quickly.

Michelin Energy Saver+ 195-60-15-T Mitsubishi Galant 100 miles January 5, 2016
I used tires for over 200 kilometers, tires are comfortable in the city but outside of the city they are less comfortable (maybe because is new or low temperature), Grip are Ok. Anyway I prefer the ContiPremiumContact2 because is more comfortable.
