w129 tires only
As many of us I have tire questions. I tried the tire section and i searched tires here. So many different models with all kinds of different questions I thought Id start a 129 only thread so those of us with the 129 can narrow it down and read relevant material. (assuming that all the 129's are similar enough to have similar tire issues.)
I saw the tire calculator but it requires the tire your going to which I dont know. I currently have 225 55 16. Id like to go a bit fatter. maybe 50's? But I dont know what the limit is. Im sticking with 16 until I have the coin to spring for some decent rims. How wide can I go and should I? I hope this helps in organization and fellow 129'ers.

Pete, I think you're getting into a rut, man. Did you realize that Benzes come in colors other than silver?
