About the 225/40R18 size
Compact sport size, W/Y summer and V/W all-season. GTI and Corolla SE keep it in high demand; XL load versions are common.
The numbers mean: 225 mm section width, sidewall height 40 % of that width, and a 18-inch rim. Overall diameter works out to about 25.1 inches. Any replacement has to match all three, and the load index and speed rating on your door sticker must be met or exceeded. Our guide on reading a tire size walks through it.

Frequently asked questions

Expect $70–$98 per tire for a budget brand, $98–$181 for a mid-range tire like the Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 Plus, and $181–$257 for a premium tire like the Pirelli Cinturato P7. A set of four therefore starts at about $280. Add roughly $15 to $45 per tire for mounting and balancing.
What vehicles use 225/40R18 tires?
225/40R18 is original equipment on Volkswagen GTI (2015-2021), Toyota Corolla (2020-2024, SE/XSE), Subaru Impreza (2017-2023, Sport), Kia Forte GT (2020-2024), Hyundai Elantra Sport (2017-2018), Hyundai Veloster Turbo (2019-2022) and Acura ILX (2019-2022, A-Spec), among others. Always confirm with the sticker inside your driver's door, because trim levels and wheel packages can change the size.
What is the best 225/40R18 tire?
For most drivers our mid-range pick, the Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 Plus, is the sweet spot of price and tread life. If you keep the vehicle a long time or drive in heavy rain and snow, the Pirelli Cinturato P7 is worth the extra. On a tight budget the Milestar MS932 Sport is a sound choice.
Can I replace just one or two 225/40R18 tires?
On a front- or rear-wheel-drive car, yes: replace in pairs on the same axle and put the newer pair on the rear. On all-wheel-drive vehicles most makers want all four replaced together, or a new tire shaved to match, because a difference in circumference strains the drivetrain.
