What cars use 245/45R19 tyres in the UK?

245/45R19 is a premium tyre size commonly fitted to luxury cars and performance SUVs in the UK. The 245/45R19 specification means: 245mm tread width, 45% aspect ratio (sidewall height to width ratio), and 19-inch wheel diameter - with popular UK models including the BMW 5 Series, Mercedes E-Class, and Audi A6 often using this size. This tyre size is particularly common among German luxury brands, with models like the Tesla Model S and Jaguar XF also frequently specifying 245/45R19 tyres. The relatively high 45% aspect ratio provides a balance between sporty handling and ride comfort, making it suitable for UK roads. When replacing these tyres, UK drivers should consider premium brands like Michelin, Pirelli, or Continental that offer specific UK-market compounds for better wet weather performance.
