Fitment comes from each tyre's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

Kormoran Snow XL 225-55-16- Mercedes Benz 320CDi 15 miles January 9, 2025
Anyone who gives this tire a negative rating either can't drive a car at all or is pushing it to the limit where it shouldn't be pushed to the limit anymore, because you should be aware that these are WINTER TIRES! If you drive at an appropriate speed, you can't go wrong with these tires. After using Contis, MY FUEL CONSUMPTION has even gone down and the tire is pleasantly quiet!! How can you say so badly about a good tire?! I'm driving now for the second winter, still have 7 mm of tread. And I drive well and quickly

Nankang NS2R 235-35-19- Mercedes Benz 320CDi 5,000 miles August 30, 2021
The tyres look great I have them on my cls Mercedes, I have no issues with handling in dry or wet, the reason I would be reluctant to buy these tyres again is the road noise, I’ve replaced front and rear bearings because I thought they had gone. Turns out it’s the tyres. I have to play radio really loud to drone out the noise while driving and braking

Michelin CrossClimate+ 225-45-17- Mercedes Benz 320CDi 1,000 miles November 26, 2018
Purchased for E class had Pirelli P7s & Continentals. Cross Climate have made the steering feedback 30% sharper. The comfort factor increased 20%. Dry & wet braking improvement 15% increase. The car feels more stable in all conditions therefore win win. Bought another two sets for my daughters cars.

Don't buy these tyres ..you have been warned .. I bought 4 for my Merc E320 CDi Sport after reading spec... and the specs are all lies... I have had the tracking done , changed each one with a spare thinking it was bearing noise or break issues reduced the pressure and increased the pressure but noise is still their.. I am going to go to a second hand tyre dealer and give them away ..never , never , again will I buy Japanese tyres ..........

Barum Bravuris 2 225-45-17- Mercedes Benz 320CDi 15,000 miles December 28, 2013
Excellent value for money. I have had these on my mondeo for 15k, and have now put them on my grand C max and Mercedes E class. The only drawback is, the slightest nick on the pavement and the side wall balloons up. Ive had to change 3 tyres in the last 2 years for this reason. I reckon the wear might not be that great on my current cars, but will post an update in due course.

Continental Sport Contact 3 275-35-18-W Mercedes Benz 320CDi 20,000 miles February 11, 2013
As an automotive design engineer I know how much development effort goes into tuning car's suspension for the recommended tyres. With that in mind I returned the tyres on my used CLS to Conti Sport Contact 3 when I bought it.

The tyres are great and have lasted very well. I'm just replacing the rears after over 18000 miles of mixed driving which I think is very reasonable for performance tyres on a powerful rear drive car. The front's look like they'll last another 10000 which will bring me to next winter when I'll be fitting some Kumho KW27's as snow and ice wasn't one of the Conti's strong points!
