Best tyres for the Alfa Romeo Giulia
This is a car you will want to drive, so the tyre needs dry and wet grip to match the chassis, with steering precision and high-speed stability. A proper ultra-high-performance tyre is worth it.
The Alfa Romeo Giulia is usually fitted in 225/45 R18, 245/40 R19 on 18 to 19 inch wheels. As a performance saloon, it leans on grip, steering response and stability at speed more than outright comfort, so a performance or ultra-high-performance tyre in the correct size suits it best.

What to watch on a Giulia
