These Kpatos tyres have really impressed me. They deal with everything I throw at them, including heavy rain and the occasional road trip. They wear evenly and aren't noisy at all, so long drives become much better. Reliable performance would highly recommend them.

195/40 R17 tyres are for performance vehicles including the Volkswagen up! GTI. The digits are easy. 195 is the width in millimetres, 40 is the aspect ratio indicating sidewall height is 78mm, R indicates radial construction on a 17-inch rim, hence overall diameter is 588mm. With the up! GTI, the shorter sidewall bends less when turning but there is less rubber between the rim and road. Tyres.co.uk stocks 195/40 R17 including the XL versions.
