My car is a W212 350 CDI and I am looking to slip on some winter tyres in the not too distant future.
I currently have the following summer tyres:
Front: 245/40 R18
Rear: 265/35 R18
There is not a lot of choice of winter tyres for the rears so I was wondering about changing the wheels.
There are a number of websites offering wheel and tyre packages, with most offering the same size for front and rear.
Has anyone experiences to share with any of these sites?
My current thinking is to have 245/45 R17 for both front and rear.
The wheel websites suggest that this is okay.
Inside my fuel filler cap it gives the tyre pressures for the different sizes:
Does my approach seem reasonable?
