    Mercedes A-Class Tyres. Can I Use 205 55R16 Instead?

    Hi, I have an '07 A-Class and need to replace my tyres. The correct tyre to use is 195 55R16 but one of the tyre stores suggested using 205 55R16. The 205's are significantly cheaper, but what are the other differences? Is it okay to use the 205? Please help. Thank you :)

    SA Autobrand Survey : Opel sucks, Mercedes rules and Subaru has best dealers I would be a very biased Opel enthusiast if I let this one slide by, but the first annual SA AutoBrand survey (CAR Magazine) has Mercedes, Honda and Audi coming out tops and Renault, Opel and Nissan in the lowest...
