Hi all

So sorry to add another "will these fit" post but I'm really confused

I have bought some new wheels part number A1644011202

http://www.alloywheelsdirect.net/me...ass_w164_alloys/19_mercedes_5_spoke_wheel_765

They have come with tyres 255/50/19

When I got them (2nd hand) I thought they had 255/40/19 tyres

I know have looked through the guides in the sticky and am confused if these will fit my car at all???

Any help appreciated as I thought these wheels would fit my car before I bought them ;(

There is another problem in that the 164 wheels that you have bought have a different ET and these new wheels would sit roughly 15mm further in and probably foul the brakes

The tyre size is OK for a 164
