What size for my 15" Bundts
I did find four "perfect" 15" Bundts on a yunk-yard, the tires that where on the rims were 195/60/15. Should I stick with this size, I'm planning to put them on my 300CD?
tnx

There have been dozens of this type of question but I figured they were mostly re: 14 in wheels,
so I am using 205-65-15 I really like the Yokohama H4S on my 123 wagon. they handle better than any 14 in tire I used before and are lasting very well

I have found that the best tire for the w123 is the Michelin MXV4. From my experience they are constructed with enough sidewall strength to hold the wieght of the W123/W116/W126 cars properly. Minimal sidewall flex, maximum comfort, and good well rounded all season performance. Long lasting as well.
If you live in a region prone to above average rainfall, or snow, id look for tires with more wet weather traction abilities. here in California the MXV4 works well considering the short and mild winters. If I lived in a different climate Id probably opt for a tire built for optimum wet weather traction.
