W126 300SE Tyre Size?

[Shiskine]

Had the car for a year now and the Nokia (!) tyres that came with it are nearing the end of their life.

The car is fitted with 205/65 R15 94H front and rear but when I punch the car's details into various tyre sellers' websites, I often seem to get 195 back as the recommended tread width.

Can someone confirm what the OEM tyre size would have been? Had a quick look in the manual and couldn't find any reference to the correct tyre size ...

Here's a pic to show the wheels ...

According to the wheel/tyre fitment PDF at the top of this section the tyres you're using are correct. If you were running slimmer, 14" rims then the narrower tyre might be more appropriate.

Thanks and pdf's existence duly noted ...
