1998 c250 estate.. my weekend car
Right guys i have a set of 18" and wheels I'm getting refurbed and going to get some new tyres.

At the moment the wheels are stamped as 8J x 18H2 ET31

front fitted with 225/40/18

Rear fitted with 235/40 18

firstly how do i know if the wheels are so called staggered or not and do you think the tyre sizes are correct as being fitted to a 1998 c250 estate.

Am thinking could i go wider on the back to say 255/45/18 and keep the fronts as 225/40/18 as the fronts do slightly rub on the inner front wheel arch inner when on full lock

cheers guys:dk::dk:
 
Hi, I THINK that as all the wheels are ET31 they are not stagered. If the tyres you have fitted catch the arch then I would think the tyres and or the wheels are not the correct size.
 
Staggerd have wider rears which would mean 9j
 
ok so not staggered thats ok. will stick with the sizes i have cheers
