Mercedes-Benz 200 Tyres

1965–1968 Mercedes-Benz 200 W110 Tyres

1965 Mercedes Benz 200 W110

The Mercedes 200 and 200D were the second generation of W110, midsized cars produced between 1965 and 1968.

• In the first year or two of production Mercedes Benz 200 W110 models fitted 13" wheels and 640 - 13 tyres. In this size we can recommend the 6.40/7.00 SR 13 Michelin ZX.
• Around 1967, new Mercedes 200 and 200D cars were moved onto 14" wheels and began fitting 175 R14 tyres.
• In the 175 R14 size we recommend the 175 HR 14 Michelin XAS as the best Mercedes-Benz 200 W110 tyre.
• Some fitment guides list 195/70 R14 as an alternative size. This size is wider than 175 R14 with a lower profile.
• Our recommended 195/70 R14 Mercedes-Benz 200 tyre is the 195/70 VR 14 PIRELLI CINTURATO CN36.

1968–1976 Mercedes-Benz 200 W115

Mercedes Benz 200D W115

Between 1968 and 1976, Mercedes-Benz introduced the W115 series, which consisted of 4-cylinder front-engine, rear-drive sedans, and coupés, including the Mercedes 200 and 200D.

• The standard W115 Mercedes-Benz 200 and 200D tyre size was 175 R14, our recommended W115 tyre is the 175 HR 14 Michelin XAS.
• Our Dunlop fitment guide suggests 185 R14 as an alternative size. Although it does not appear to be the OE size, we are aware that in period and today, some people fit 185 R14 tyres.
• In this size the best Mercedes-Benz W115 200 tyre is the 185 HR 14 Michelin MXV-P.
• The size 185 R14 provides the advantage of accommodating a wide range of tyre options, including the possibility of using whitewall tyres. The 185 R 14 Michelin MXV Whitewall not only features a classic high-performance design but also comes with whitewall aesthetics.
• The 195/70 R14 size is listed in some fitment guides as an alternate size. Our recommended Mercedes 200 tyre in this size is the 195/70 VR 14 PIRELLI CINTURATO CN36.

1976–1985 Mercedes-Benz 200 W123 Tyres

Mercedes-Benz 200 W123

From November 1975 to January 1986, Mercedes-Benz produced the executive car range known as the Mercedes-Benz W123.

• From 1976 the standard W123 Mercedes-Benz 200 tyre size 200 and 200D models remained 175 R14. The best 123 Mercedes-Benz 200 tyre in this size is the 175 HR 14 Michelin XAS.
• By 1984 and possibly earlier, 200T (Estate) tyres became 195/70 R14 as standard. The 195/70 VR 14 PIRELLI CINTURATO CN36 is the best Mercedes-Benz 200T tyre.
• By 1982 Michelin had released the TRX tyre. Mercedes-Benz models could be ordered with modern 150TR wheels, which allowed for the fitment of 190/65 HR 390 Michelin TRX or 200/60 VR 390 Michelin TRX tyres. If you have these 390 mm wheels then you need to fit millimetric tyres.

1984–1992 Mercedes-Benz 200 W124 Tyres

Mercedes-Benz W124

Mercedes-Benz manufactured the mid-size car range called the W124 from 1984 to 1997.

• The standard Mercedes-Benz 200 W124 tyre size is either 185/65 R15 or 195/65 R15.
• There is not currently a high-quality period tyre available in the 185/65 R15 size, we recommend moving up to 195/65 R15 and fitting a set of 195/65 R 15 PIRELLI P6000 N tyres.
• The 200T estate variants fitted 195/65 R15 tyres as standard, we recommend the 195/65 R 15 PIRELLI P6000 N.
