I bought W211 17" rims for my w211
what tire size should i go with
the car is a 2004 E200 kompressor elegance

 

245/45/17.

 

How wide the rims?
Each rim allows for about 20 mm different tire width, so if you want to play with different sizes, start with checking rpm of orginal tires and then once you find favorite tire model - chose the size that gets close to original rpm.
245 are wide tires for E and if you care more about fuel economy than hard cornering, - you can go narrower than that.
If the looks are your only priority- go for 300 in the rear and I thing 285 in front will fit.

 

the rims are standard w211 facelift avantgarde 17 rims

 

There is no such thing as standard wheel on car model.
Did not see the catalog for W211, but W210 was living factory with more than 50 different wheels options.
Obviously the number doesn't make it to America.

 

This 1

 

If they are all the same size wheel (they should have markings on the inside of the wheel spokes), the correct tire size was stated above.. 245/45/17

 

Never have seen those rims on W211 so finding part number on inner side would be interesting.
The offset looks funny.

 

i droped em off at the painters place
they have a w211 part number ill post it when i get them back
the tires they came with were 215/50/R17 front and 245/45/R17 rear

 

Than no US W211 come with 215 tires.
What country are you in?
Should list that in your profile to avoid such chaos again.

 

On my W211 2003 model (original rims) the tyre size is 225/55/16.

 

And again - no location no car destination model. Such notes are worthless.

 

Heres everything on the back

 

 

info about offset and et38

 

Looks like good rim, but that model never made it to America.
US/Canadian models come heavy loaded, so are heavier than most other country models, what also adds wider wheels.

 

I'd stick with a 225/45-17 or 235/40-17.

I'm guessing these aren't staggered?

 

They are from an early W211 E320.. and again the tire size on those wheels (if you have a matching set of 4 in the same size and offset) was a 245/45/17

 

I'll add 245/45/17 on the rear ones
idk if i should gp with 215/50 front or 225/50
i guess they aren't staggered

 

Those were also on 2006 E350's and 2005 E320's. They stopped that style in 2007+. They had 245/45/17's on them.
