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.

Sailun Atrezzo ZSR 235-50-18 Opel Astra J GTC 2,000 miles September 26, 2025

Excellent braking on both dry and wet roads. Quiet driving. This is a big plus.

Unfortunately, the steering response is pathetic. Also, the steering is very poor in corners. Also, the tires do not hold air pressure. It's good that I got a few defective 2025 tires and I returned them, changed them to another manufacturer.

Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance 235-50-18- Opel Astra J GTC 5,000 miles September 4, 2023

I bought the tire for my 2012 model opel astra j gtc. I did not like its performance in the rain, it slips when I brake and skids even at moderate throttle response. Its performance in dry conditions is average. I was torn between Falken z310 Ecorun and wish I had bought it.
