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.

Yokohama Advan Fleva V701 225-45-17 Opel Astra 1.4 5,000 miles April 8, 2026
It's going ok...
I relied on 67db and was disappointed.
Poor handling.
It depends on the road surface; sometimes they are very quiet, sometimes very loud to drive on.
I will never buy it again.

Tourador X Wonder TH2 205-55-16 Opel Astra 1.4 30,000 miles January 8, 2026
Pretty good for budget tires, great wear life and acceptable performance in dry and wet.

Not a tire you would want to fit for heavy duty or push too hard in poor conditions as it tended to slip when pushed hard.

Road noise was a bit loud too but can't complain for the prices

Hankook Winter I cept RS3 175-65-14 Opel Astra 1.4 November 26, 2025
immediately after installation I noticed that it has very strong and good sidewalls, it holds the height of the front of the vehicle well, which despite the weight of the engine does not drop that low. The tire is a little harder after 2 years and probably therefore a little louder and less comfortable. However, overall it is a higher class winter tire, good grip on all surfaces snow, ice and rain. The handling is also quite direct and offers enough feedback.

Semperit Comfort Life 2 225-50-17 Opel Astra 1.4 75,000 miles July 14, 2025
8yr old tire on a semi rainy day. Chased a new Q8 down the alps. He moved over after 10mins, couldn't handle the pressure from the rear.
Best bang for the buck.

Falken ZIEX ZE914 EcoRun 195-60-15-H Opel Astra 1.4 October 29, 2019
Bought 4 Falken PL15 195/60R15 88H ZIEX ZE 914 ECORUN in 2017 (50€ each). They were on Astra G 1.4 90 HP for 30 000 kms and they feel much better then previous Dunlop SP, especially on rain. Tire wear is minimal (1 mm per year or 9000 km). 4.5 to 5.5 mm is left on tire tread.

Continental Premium Contact 6 225-45-17- Opel Astra 1.4 2,500 miles June 4, 2017
I've been driving on these tires for nearly 4000 kms. Comfort and noise is really impressing after my old Hankook Ventus s2. The steering feels softer and more responsive; however the softer feeling is definitely a negative thing for a keen driver like me. I can't say much about wet braking, I haven't had the chance to try, but dry braking is very very good indeed, the car just doesn't need any abs with this set of tires.
The final and most important part is that these continental premiumcontact 6 just doesn't handle as well and progressive as my previous Hankook Ventus s2. This caused a dramatic disappoinment actually. I just didn't get used to this lack of handling quality, and I began to consider changing the tires. I can't corner with these continentals as well and sharp as mu previous Hankooks. It feels like with these continentals my car is a completely different car. Perhaps the reason is the soft sidewall, I don't know. Also, when you're going straight on the highway, the steering needs small adjustments in order to go straight and precise. It is about lateral stability perhaps.
For short; comfortable, quiet but absolutely not sporty, not quite precise and sharp.
Ams tire test is definitely right about this premium contact 6. The tire has just 3 water canals, I think this is why it tends to understeer or oversteer in the wet. This understeering and oversteering never occurred with my hankooks.
This tire needs an immediate update and for the most part I regret my decision on continental premium contact 6.
