tyres

I have bought a set of Mexican Hat alloys that have come off another W123 TE. Could anyone recommend which tyres would be best to put on my 280TE and if appropriate a reasonable mid range tyre? I currently have 195/70/R14 91H tyres on the car. Thanks.

Hi Everybody, new (ish) here - but have benefitted from pearls of wisdom herein for a while... On my third Merc (C220 (pet) - CLK 320 still here.... and now an SL) . . . I would just like to elicit opinions on suitable rubber for an SL (55) - I have read previous threads on the subject -...

Hi, I've just purchased a new (second-hand) E320 CDi Sport '08 plate. As the weather is shockingly bad at the moment, I've not had a chance to run it since it was delivered this week. I'm looking to invest in a set of new alloys and winter tyres. However, I've been unable to get a straight...

Hi all, Can you let me know if you recognize these wheels as being official Mercs? Reason I am asking is that, there's a locking bolt on these.... and I don't have the key to unlock them... Apparently if there are official Mercs, a dealer would have a master key... if not... then it's the...

Anyone of you ML boys used General Grabber UHP tyres? The Freelander's Michelins are down to a fingernail above the bar so it's time for them to go. I've been doing the usual research and whilst a replacement set of Michelins makes good sense, I don't fancy finding £600+ for a new set. I've...
