Should this w208 clk have the same size tyres front & back?

Got NS2's on our A190 , great tyres for the money.

Falken 452's on the 430 CLK.

I think so too, never had a problem with them, worst tyres I ever had were Dunlop SP Sport OK in the dry but 2 spots of rain and they were lethal

I bought the NS2's on the back of what you told me !

£35 a corner ! Happy days !

Glad you pleased , think mine were around £200 for all 4 corners on a staggered set up.

There's a chap here in Leicester that sells part worns, all guaranteed and tested. Said he's got a pair of michelins with 4mm tread on them (that came off a CLK), 60 quid the pair fitted and balanced.

Shame she's in Harrow!

I have Lassa Impetus2 fitted on my car and never had any problems with them

That's not a good deal only 2 mm of wear left in them and you'll soon wear that off in a CLK, better option would be Nankang NS2 or Lassa Impetus 2 new tyres for little more than the cost of the pair of 2/3rd worn Michelins

Nankangs ns2 cant go wrong as flanaia and howard have said a very good all round tyre, have them on my clk430

Going back to the spare - make sure you have the spare wheel bolts which are shorter, the alloy wheel bolts won't tighten with the spare on. Best to find out now before they're needed.

Funnily enough, I came to the same conclusion after I typed that out. False economy really ain't it? 4mm ain't really all that much is it?

Thanks Daz, the spare fitted ok with the same bolts.
