Need help on 18" tire sizes

I'm going for 18" rims. Any recommendations for tyre sizes? Understand that the rear tyres should be broader bcos Mercs is rear wheel drive. Can we use same size for all round? My car is a C180K Yr 2006.

What brand and model do you suggest?

Any advice?

Here is what I run on my S-class:

225/60QR-16 Michelin X-Ice, in the winter (same OEM size all around)

And my summer wheels/tires are as follows (front & rear):

18x8.5 AMG Double Spoke Bright Sil
18x9 AMG Double Spoke Bright Sil
245/45WR-18 Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 XL
275/40YR-18 Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3

I love both the wheels and tires!
