Tires sizes for Brabus monoblock VI.
Tires sizes for Brabus monoblock VI.
Hello,
I just bought a brand new brabus monoblock VI for a C230 sportcoupe.
They are 8J*17' H2 30mm offset.
Brabus is suggesting me to mount:
Option1: 225/45 in all wheels.
Option2: 225/45 in front; 245/40 in rear.
Tires will be Good Year F1 DSC3 ZR.
I'm confused on what option chosse because 8 of width (normaly 245 goes to 8.5 of with, and 225 to 7.5).
Suggestions?
Best Regards.

depends on the weather
I would not recommend putting staggered tire sizes on non-staggered wheels ..... the variation in sidewall deflection rates would upset the handling of the car .... 225's on all four
