Hyundai i40 235/40R18 Continental MC7 Fitment in Magill
A Hyundai i40 came into Autosport Tyre World Magill for a fresh wheel and tyre setup and wheel alignment support. The tyre fitted was 235/40R18 95Y XL Continental MaxContact 7, commonly called Continental MC7.
For a lowered or sportier i40 wheel package, the tyre cannot be chosen by appearance alone. The size, load rating, wheel width, offset, clearance and alignment all need to work together.
Quick answer
This Hyundai i40 was fitted with 235/40R18 Continental MC7 tyres at Autosport Tyre World Magill. This size should be checked against the current wheel package, tyre placard, load rating, suspension height and guard clearance before fitting.

The 235/40R18 size is a sporty 18-inch fitment. On a Hyundai i40, it may suit an aftermarket wheel package when the wheel width, offset and suspension setup are correct.
Why Continental MC7 suited this i40
Continental MaxContact 7 is a performance-road tyre for drivers who want steering response, grip and everyday usability. It is more focused than a basic touring tyre, but still practical for sealed-road driving around Adelaide.
That makes it relevant for i40 owners who want sharper road feel without moving to a semi-slick or track-focused tyre.
Why alignment was part of the job
When new tyres are fitted, wheel alignment helps protect the tyre edges. A 235/40R18 performance tyre can show inner or outer shoulder wear quickly if toe or camber is not right.
A proper alignment helps the i40 track correctly and gives the Continental MC7 tyres the best chance of wearing evenly.
