What Tires will fit my '87 190e?

I'm putting 16's on it...can I go as large as 225/60's?

Thanks, Larry in Boise

I'm looking at 7 and 7.5" wide rims...offset of 34 to 40

87 190E 5 speed
a 225 60 would be a bit tall. if you wanted 225 you could do a 50 series. i've ahd 205 55 16 and they were perfect.
