OE Mercedes tyre fitment with Hankooks to fit t6

[Thatratman]

I’d like to fit these hankooks to my 18’s, they’re about the only ones I can find as 255 50 is a pretty unusual size. With these being marked for Mercedes vehicles, will they still be fine to use on my T6 or are they only for Merc vehicles?
Cheers

I think MB use weird round shaped wheels instead of the circular ones used by VW, either that or they'll be fine and just happen to be OE for mercs?

No, these tyres marked for Merc, Vw Audi etc are constructed differently. Im not saying they wont work but they are not the same.

Just wanted to post some independent clarification.

Looking at the performance ratings they should be a good tyre and they also have plenty of load rating.

Did you see my reply to your other post...?
I considered these too, but went with the Bridgestone T005’s
