225/40 R18 Winter Tires – Used

The 225/40 R18 dimension is one of the most popular winter sizes for sporty compact cars, dynamic mid-range models, touring variants, and modern hybrid/electric vehicles. With its sporty 40-series sidewall and 225 mm wide tread, this tire size offers precise steering, stable cornering, good winter traction, and short braking distances – ideal for demanding winter conditions.

Vehicles that use this dimension often feature:

• sport-tuned chassis,

• larger braking systems (M Sport, S-Line, AMG Line),

• front-, rear- or all-wheel drive,

• hybrid/EV-specific requirements for load capacity & rolling circumference,

• low tolerances for vibration-free concentricity.

As this is a performance-oriented winter dimension, Reifenshop Landshut inspects each used unit particularly rigorously.
