Mercedes SLK Tyres

The Mercedes SLK is a two-seater roadster. Road use requires certain tyre types that provide confidence when driving on open roads. Given its rear-wheel-drive, wet grip and manageable stopping tyres are the best choice. For urban and motorway driving tyres offering comfort and low road noise are better.

Since the Mercedes SLK comes in multiple generations and model years, it also offers multiple trim levels, engines and factory wheel options. Thus, Mercedes SLK tyres come in a variety of sizes making it essential to get tyres that fit. The existing tyres or the owner's manual or registration document will give the required information for the tyre size, load index and speed rating for the Mercedes SLK. Tyres also determine how the car handles and how fast it stops.

For the Mercedes SLK tyres, Tyres.co.uk provides a brand and price and performance based comparison of tyre options. It also provides a simple way to schedule tyre replacements by selecting a given appointment from the participating local centres.

Avon ZV7
Tyre review for Avon ZV7 225/40R18
4.00/5
Fits the rim well, and is mid-range quality and pricing.

Tyre review for Avon ZV7 225/50R17
5.00/5
The existing tyres are doing an adequate job but my expectations for how long the front tyres would last were higher. Most of my driving is local, and there are a lot of roundabouts in this area.

They are beautiful tyres, and they help me to be confident and calm when driving. If only the roads were built to the same standard!

Tyre review for Avon ZV7 215/45R17
5.00/5
Avon ZV7 tyres provide excellent performance on the wet country roads and the rainy weather where I drive. They help with fuel economy and last a long time before needing to be changed. I feel confident driving on them and plan to put them on the back of my car soon. They are great value for a mid-range tyre.

Wonderful, I always put Michelin on my Porsche as they are the best tyres for it, plus they have the Porsche 'N' rating.

Goodyear Eagle F1 (Asymmetric 5)
Tyre review for Goodyear Eagle F1 (Asymmetric 5) 225/50R17
5.00/5
I feel great. The wear seems to be even and they have plenty of tread remaining. I was a little worried about having a hybrid because the batteries make it a little heavier.

Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2
Tyre review for Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2 255/40R20
4.00/5
The tyres are great in any weather. Heavy rain also does not impact cornering and braking. I haven't tested the tyres in deep snow and based on the tread I would expect only average performance.
Macey C.
Tyre review for Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2 255/40R20
5.00/5
Because of their value, I have always chosen Dunlop sports. As a mechanic, I have worked with a lot of different tyres and these are by far the best.
Ian Issac
Tyre review for Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2 255/40R20

Poor traction in all conditions, replace them after six months.

Tyre review for Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2 255/40R20

Have done an excellent job, and would absolutely purchase from them again.

Tyre review for Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2 275/30R20

The tyres are smooth, but I can't say how they perform differently since I always use this brand on my car.

Mercedes SLK Tyres: Help and Advice

Tyres.co.uk offers Michelin Pilot Sport 5 and Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport in the sizes 225/40 R18 (front) and 245/35 R18 (rear) for R172 SLK 200, SLK 250 and SLK 350 models with AMG Line wheels. Please confirm registration, load index, speed rating, and XL spec against the vehicle label prior to purchase.

The tyre size for the Mercedes SLK can be found on the tyre sidewall and on the tyre pressure and size label which can be found on the tyre pressure label on the fuel filler door inside the flap on the right. Use this to confirm approved sizes and pressures of the front and rear tyres as some models of the Mercedes SLK will have wheel and tyre staggered fitments.

Each of the Mercedes SLK models is rear wheel drive, and therefore, there is no need to match the 4MATIC rolling circumference, and therefore, as long as any new pair of tyres is fitted to the rear, any staggered size can be fitted. Mercedes does advise to keep matching tyre type and make where possible.
