    Wheel and tyre size

    Hi does anyone know the width of both the wheels and tyres front and rear as standard for a 2013 E350 coupe amg sport. They look identical front and back but the rears have wider tyres. The tyres on my car are a different size to my work colleagues E350 saloon but the wheels look identical.

Yesterday I was persuaded to purchase some McGuires Tyre gel (purple...

    New tyre problems

    Just had new rear tyres put on my s class. The guy said mine are an odd size (265/40/18 I have no idea if that is odd!) and the only ones he could get were Dunlops. As mine were bald I told him to go ahead. The new ones seem to have no grip whatsoever and am worried about what it will be...
