Hi all,

Im new to this group.ive got a merc e350 v6 cdi 2011 convertible, i upgraded the wheel to 19's and currently running 265/30/19's and 235/35/19's. Is anyone running these as im unsure what tyres pressures to run?

Thanks

I had a very similar set up on my 2010 A207. 275 on the back. Ride was very harsh and I did a fair amount of experimentation with pressures around the fuel flap figures. To be honest nothing made a dramatic difference. Couple of psi lower on the fronts helped a bit.

Cheers andrew. What would you recommend to put them at? 36 all round?

Hi , I have a very similar set up to your car. 36 psi all round but on the Goodyear Assy 5 the ride and handing superior to the Cont 5 p and the same pressure.

Try 36 then 37 ,38 . You'll find what's best . To soft bang in pot holes etc ( harsh ) same with to hard.

Also check the size on your fuel flap. Rears are normally 255 30 19 .

Ignore my last . If wheels are staggered,then 265 is correct %

Exact same set up as my C207 I put 38psi all round, never had a problem.
