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.

Bridgestone Supercat 175-65-14- Mitsubishi Lancer VRX September 9, 2022
DO NOT BUY THESE IF YOU WANT TO LIVE! These came with the seconds hand car when I bought it and these are outright dangerous if the roads are even slightly wet. These should not be legal I am replacing them with plenty of tread remaining because they are that much dangerous. These tires have changed my driving style due to how slippery they are when wet. It's like driving on ice. I almost drove off a cliff when the wheels locked up at less than 50km/h with very light braking on a rainy day. luckily I stopped braking and was able to control the car. And that was not the first time or the last time. I have seen lot of similar reviews about the poor wet grip of these tires. On dry roads the grip is OK. I haven't had these long enough to comment about the life time.

Kumho Ecsta KU39 225-45-18- Mitsubishi Lancer VRX 9,000 miles August 25, 2018
Fitted these to replace the ageing Cinturato P6 tires that were on my Lancer when I bought it. The old tires were lacking grip, starting to get noisy and had premature tire squeal when driving hard.
Fitted 4x KU39 from Tempe Tires in Sydney.
Upsized from 215/45/R18 to 225/45/R18 on the stock 7.5in.

Tires were fantastic. Loads more grip right off the bat. Drove the car home after the tires were fitted on the freeway for 2 hours in the pounding rain. No issues.
Nice stiff sidewall so no feeling of washiness or roll. Loads of grip wet and dry for what they are and low tire noise (at least for the 10 months I used them)

Unfortunately the car they were on was written of by a red light runner who T-boned me so only put 15,000kms on the tires, but they were still going strong after roughly a year.

Will definitely buy again.
