hi, have just bought an immaculate 220 cdi estate 08' reg, can i go up in tyre size from 205/55r 16 to 225/55 16 without any probs? any advice please....

First off, congratulations on your purchase.

To answer your question, the car's manual lists all the recommended wheel & tyre fitments. Suggest you take a look there?

If it was me, I'd stick to the standard sizes...
I suppose you could put thicker ones on the back if ur going to be using the estate for moving heavier than usual stuff.
Ask at the tyre shop for advice too.

I would have thought the standard fit for a W211 car is 225/55-16.

It is (for a 320 anyway) - I sold four yesterday.

I have 225 55 16 on my S211. Two sets now. Cheers John

Did they scrub up ok, apart from the lacquer lift Les?

Where did he say it's a 211? I'm reckoning on it being a C class of some type - OP please confirm.

Looking at other posts, yes, it's a C220CDI S204.
