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 BluEarth AE50 205-55-17- Citroën c4picasso 10,000 miles March 20, 2021
Had tires fitted and tracking done in June 2019, Just had my yearly MOT done for 2021 and had an advisory for front tires. Not impressed as the tires have barely done 10000mls.

Nexen Winguard Snow G3 215-55-17-V Citroën c4picasso 1,000 miles January 13, 2021
Was a bit dubious of having these fitted as never used nexen tires before but my local garage owner assured me they were a good tire for the money and I would be happy with them. Two month down the line and 1000mls later I have to say I'm really pleased with them. The car handles as it should plus we had a few days of snow here a couple of weeks back so they were put to the test and they didn't let me down. Our street is really steep and always a struggle to climb in the winter time, especially when there's snow. As I wanted to test these tires out I purposely tried some heavy breaking, a few hill stops and starts without any problem. The car just pulled away each time as if it was normal conditions. I can't comment on wear as only had them fitted a few months but I'm quite confident they will last me several seasons for the amount of miles I do each year.

Nankang N607 215-55-16- Citroën c4picasso 10,000 miles September 27, 2015
Update on my previous review.
Had the tires for a year now having covered 10000 miles and I am still impressed with them. In the summer I took the car to central France where the temperature was up to 35 degrees and had no trouble with them.
As for wear, they still have 6mm tread on all 4 tires so at this rate should be good for at least 30000 miles so my 2nd. winter with them should give no problems.
Overall I'm very impressed with them.

Nankang N607 215-55-16- Citroën c4picasso 2,000 miles December 30, 2014
Bought 4 of these in October 2014 to replace 2 Uniroyal Rainexperts (front & excellent tires) & 2 Goodyear Efficientgrip Performance (rear & terrible wear rate). After 3 months use I find road-holding in both wet & dry to be very good, comparable to the Uniroyals. They are slightly noisy on rough road surfaces, but are noticably quieter when the road surface is good. Not as quiet as the Goodyears, but on a par with the Uniroyals. Not driven too many miles since fitting (approx 2000), but the tread on the front tires is still 7.5 mm so I am optimistic they will wear well.
Just had 8 inches of snow over Christmas and the tires have performed well. In previous years I have sometimes struggled to get the car off the drive in deep snow (slightly uphill & I never rush into clearing snow, but I had no trouble with these or the Uniroyals). I have never fitted winter tires, but I suspect they would be slightly better than the Nankangs which being all-season tires are obviously a compromise, eg. I can get the Nans to spin in the wet at one or two hilly junctions when setting off. Would I buy again? Probably, as they are as good as the Uniroyals which I really rate but are a lot cheaper - and it looks like they'll last a good long time, although fuel consumption is possibly slightly poorer, maybe 1 or 2 mpg down.

Uniroyal RainExpert 215-55-16-V Citroën c4picasso 24,000 miles September 5, 2014
These tires have been on the front of my FWD C4 Picasso for 24000 miles. they are now at 2mm. They have been excellent tires, can't fault their grip in either wet or dry conditions. They could be a little quieter, but I wouldn't say they are noisy, just that I've had tires that are slightly quieter. I would be buying them again if I wasn't going to be driving in Germany this winter and it is a legal requirement there that if there is snow or icy conditions you must have tires with the mountain symbol (ie. not summer tires).
Having said that, I have had no trouble driving in snow in the UK with the Uniroyals these past 2 winters. Excellent tires.

Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance 215-55-16-V Citroën c4picasso 9,000 miles September 5, 2014
Tires are very good in every respect except wear. Had them on the rear wheels (FWD) for 9000 miles and they are down to 3mm. That's less than 2000 miles per mm. I always change my tires at around 2mm so that means they've only got another 2000 miles at most. I am used to getting at least 24000 miles from a tire so these have turned out to be very expensive. Won't buy again.

Michelin Primacy HP 215-55-16- Citroën c4picasso 35,000 miles August 1, 2014
Very good tires, used them for 55000km on a front heavy MPV (set of 4 standard equipped car). In dry they grip enough to let you topple the car in a very tight bend. In wet they are OK but you can get aquaplaning if they are more than half worn. I'm very pleased on how long they lasted with an even wear. Just a tad cheaper and they would make the perfect tire.

Falken ZIEX ZE914 EcoRun 215-55-16-V Citroën c4picasso 6,000 miles January 31, 2014
Great tire on my C4 Picasso. I have the 97 Load index ones. Previous tires were Michelin Primacy that lasted only 11000 miles. Done some homework and bought 4 of these. Car is much quieter even with a higher load index, and grip in both wet and dry is excellent. I was so impressed that i also have replaced my wife's Kia Rio with these when the Kumho's shreded after 8000 miles !!!!
Definitely will buy these again for both cars

Marshal KH35 215-55-16-V Citroën c4picasso 2,000 miles August 24, 2013
Only had these for about a month but do far not to bad not quite as good as the sailuns I had before but still not bad for £70 EACH ftom f1 auto center. My only issue is they seem to role over slightly when going into a tight corner so not the toughest of sidewalls. Overall would recommend these if £140 a pop for premium isnt your thing or the wallet will not stretch.
