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.

The most recent owner reviews from this car, in their own words.
In Jan 2023 , south africa factory no treadwear rating ,still better than Michellin, Bridgestone, Hankook.No wonder on drivers rating its 2nd only to VREDESTEIN.As of today i paid 1 for 3900 mur while Michellin was 7000+ mur and Hankook K125 was 6000+ mur.driving on those is like driving on gel
My first review on this site of this tire was september 2016, now after 6 years they have reached their tread indicator.Time flies,the v12 evo 2 was well worth the price especially now that i cant find any good tires for my car.No hankook available December 2022, i will keep driving till i get good options for the tires mid january 2023 n onwards .hoping to get Dunlop, Hankook or Vredestein.sadly none of them are available. PRIMACY 4+ are 7500 mur in mauritius and still have bad treadlife and reviews after primacy 3 ,4 n now 4+
Goid tire. Soft and road noise good. Water no problem and dry road very good.
I just reviewed it on 1st 10 km and now after 1000km i can say best tires i ever got.its better than michelin primacy 3 and for 60% cheaper.it goes up in pressure psi and goes down by only 1 psi after garage rest overnight in tropical Mauritius.100 % as buy again.infact i just wish i had the money right now to buy 2 rear fm800.i have hankook v12 evo 2 on and will change them in 2 to 3 months.Thanks Dunlop !
Better than michelin primacy 3 bridgestone GR90 and hankook V12 evo 2 that it replaces.and cheaper than those above.bought 2 front and had camber and alignment done.try it you wont regret it.
In snow and ice this is the best winter tire i ever used. Under 0°c in dry condition working perfektly. Even in city, or at high speed. On slightly wet road is the weakest point of this tire. In a real rain storm there is no problem.
Had these installed on my alfa 159 TI, bought the first set and had them replaced in a year. Second set replaced in a year too. They have good grip in both Dry and wet but when it comes to wear I personally will not buy them again.
These tires were as good regarding dry grip as tires twice the cost and I drive hard . Wet grip is also equally good , you'd have to be an idiot to lose the car in the wet . I cannot understand anyone calling them dangerous . Handling in dry and wet is as good as the setup of your car ie. correct tire pressures , camber , castor and toe . No different in my case to the AVONS just taken off which were twice the cost . Comfort is about suspension so cannot comment really , just a tad stiff as am running uprated springs and shocks . The feedback is excellent and I will buy again .
bought these nearly a year ago to replace michelin primacy 3
its 40 % cheaper last longer and makes less noise
bought 2 more for this car and 2 other hankooks for other car!
they are better than michelin and bridgestone!
