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.

Uniroyal WinterExpert 205-55-16- Opel Astra H GTC 2,000 miles January 31, 2022
Since this is new model of Uniroyal winter tires at first I was skeptical since there was no tire reviews about them on the internet, but at the end I have decided to give them a chance and I'm quite satisfied with them. They have great grip and they behave great on dry, wet and snow, I didn't have a chance to test them on ice. Can't say much about wear since I drove them for about 2000miles so time will show.

Roadstone Eurovis Sport 04 225-45-17- Opel Astra H GTC 10,000 miles April 13, 2018

Uniroyal RainExpert 3 225-45-17-W Opel Astra H GTC 1,000 miles August 9, 2017
Very comfortable and quiet tire also very affordable. Definitely show their best on wet roads but on dry, for my taste, too soft rubber. You better have good working ABS on your car when it comes to a bit harder braking.
I had shorter braking distance with my prehistoric Hankook Ventus S1 evo2.
Handling is average and don't expect that car will go exactly where you want them to go every time.
Take your time and get to know these after fitting them on a car, don't try to drive them like your previous set or if you tend to drive a bit "sharper".
After not even 1000 miles front tires looks like disaster, I will easily give them 10k hard driving based just on visual inspection. Rear tires are almost like new and I hope will do 5k with these set.
Definitely not recommend this tire if you live in a country with hot climate because you will watch them vanishing.
Don't want to say it's a bad tire in general but for warm climate and hot asphalt they are big NO!
I'm sure they are more suitable and give their best on a colder places with lots of rain.
Definitely will not make same mistake again and buy another set of these.

Matador MP 44 Elite 3 205-55-16- Opel Astra H GTC April 10, 2017
Good tire, made some research, this page convinced me to buy them, very good in dry, good in wet, not bad on wear, litle bit noisy. Excelent price, for 205/55 r16 some 45 euro/piece with install. Driving style not agressive, but sometimes on the open road and corners a bit speedier, allways confident with this tire. Some 20000 km on them, still good.

Bridgestone Turanza T001 205-55-16- Opel Astra H GTC 5,000 miles May 2, 2016
My car was originally fitted with Turanza ER300 and I absolutely loved those tires. Sporty and controllable, great feedback and precision. I bought T001 as a replacement as ER300 were not longer available and T001 was offered (on Bridgestone websites) as a logical replacement.
It was a total disappointment! There was nothing to compare with ER300. Soft, unpredictable, cheap family-car feeling.
BUT - as I found out later - that ACTUALLY there were different ER300 - some were soft walled and some much stiffer (mine car originals). But you could not tell the difference - no markings except some small letter codes (and i´m not 100% sure if it described the style either?).
WHAT IS THE POINT OF MAKING TOTALLY DIFFERENT STYLE TYRES UNDER EXACTLY THE SAME NAME AND MARK??? Are some just for original equipment - to feel ok on a test drive?
Perhaps there are stiff-wall T001 on the (open) market somewhere, but how to find them? Which secret codes reveal the "real" tire?
If someone could help with these questions, please. For now I drive and cry and later will stay clear of Bridgestones altogether. Does not make sense to choose blindly.

I've had these tires for almost a season during which I took a trip to Austria and I gotta say, the tires performed very well in snow/ice conditions. I didn't pushed them to the limit in the wet, but the overall feedback was ok.
