A Class wheel size

[Fudger]

Guys, my wife has an A170 Avantgarde SE with 17" wheels (215/45/17). She needs 4 new tyres and as one of the alloys is damaged I thought I would get a new set of 16" wheels and tyres. However, I am not sure how to work out what size 16" wheels and tyres would be suitable. Can anyone assist?

Many thanks.

Hi,have a look at the sticky on wheels and tyres,has all you need.

Thanks, I did see that but it appears there are 13 wheel sizes available for the W169. Does that give me great flexibility or am I reading the chart wrong?

Cheers

Why not just replace the one damaged alloy?

The others are not good either and they have been refurbished once already. I am hoping to get a second hand set with tyres for not too much more than 4 new tyres.

Cheers.
