Re: [MBZ] 400E Fun -- Costco Michelins

[Buggered Benzmail via Mercedes]

These Michelins now on the SD are Brit-made so not-quite-yurpeen. 

I’m starting to think the left front suspension has gone wonky. I rebuilt the 
suspension maybe 4 or 5 years ago and got it aligned. I’m wondering if the 
rubber bits in the control arms have squeezed or deteriorated or something 
letting the tire wobble a bit which caused the edge wear and belt delamination 
at the edges. Or if the eccentric bolt loosened. I vaguely remember they didn’t 
get one properly tightened in the initial alignment so I guess that is possible 
and the camber is out of whack. That would probably need to be checked in an 
alignment.

[Curley McLain via Mercedes]

I had cooper CS4 on the van, and I thought they slipped belts pretty 
early, but when I checked the miles on them, they had around 50k.  So 
for the price I guess they were ok.  I just wish I could find tars that 
didn't slip belts all the time.  With any tires I had msde in Yurp, 
other than Michelin, I have never had slipped belts.  The frog michelins 
slipped belts too.  My preference was always German made Continentals.  
I am still curious about how the Barums hold up.  Just put a pair on the 
300D.

What was the Czech continental? Barum?  Try those.  They looked decent, 
but I've not had any long enough to determine the long term viability.   
I've had poor results with several brands of "high quality" asian tars.  
IMHO, anything yurpeen is preferable over asian or US brands.

Re: [MBZ] 400E Fun -- Costco Michelins

[Buggered Benzmail via Mercedes]

I called Costco to see if they had Michelin tires to fit and were compatible. 
He could get some in the proper size that were some other name but probably 
pretty much the same. He asked what car they were for and the conversation got 
into some whole other dimension about they had to go on the rear not the front 
and a bunch of stuff about the speed ratings and load ratings and what not, 
which I knew about from when I bought these tires a few years ago. Anyway he 
would have to order them and it would take a week or two and then a bunch of 
other extraneous nonsense again about bringing the car in etc.  And the 
Michelin deal is only for 4 tires and it expires in a day or two and these were 
going to be some huge price anyway. 

Maybe I should Just buy some of those cheepcheep Asian things. Or I guess I 
could check around see if I could find the Michelins somewhere else.  What a 
PITA.

[Dwight Giles via Mercedes]

When I was going to replace steel wheels on 240D with bundts I had to get
longer bolts. Decided not to do it & still have bolts & Bundts.

Re: [MBZ] 400E Fun -- Costco Michelins -- bundts 123/126?

[Curley McLain via Mercedes]

And there are 14" and 15" bundts.  A 15" will fit on  a brake made for 
14" wheels, but a 14"  bundt may not fit on a car that came with 15" out 
of the factory.


Bolts always match to the wheel, not the car.

As I recall, alloy and steel are different but all alloy are same. In 
addition to different rim width, I think there may be different 
offsets for alloys.

Hubcap and non-hubcap are different. Hubcap came in both steel and alloy...

[Kaleb C. Striplin via Mercedes]

They will fit but there are various widths. 126 will be wider than 123.

Re: [MBZ] 400E Fun -- Costco Michelins

[clay monroe via Mercedes]

Most stores no longer carry the small tires.  You can order them online and get 
an install at the store.  No added fees.  THere are issues if you are trying to 
put something on that their computer system says is not right.  Then you are 
not getting them to put tires on.

Re: [MBZ] 400E Fun -- Costco Michelins -- bundts 123/126?

[clay monroe via Mercedes]

Yes,  Same rims for the w115-w126.  At least they have fit those same cars.  I 
pulled them from 116 and 123 on put them on w115, as well as w126.

All the better to get fresh tires with. 

A lot of our old 14" cars are low usage, and every month of remaining tire life 
helps.

Re: [MBZ] 400E Fun -- Costco Michelins

[Dan--- via Mercedes]

They don’t have stock on the 195/65 15 tires I wanted, either.  Not a big deal, 
as I’m in no hurry, but from what I can tell my CostCo tire place has a week 
backlog or more.  No walk in work from the looks of things.

The tires I got for my W210 wagon had to be ordered in, too, but they were on 
sister in about three days. I don’t think they have much inventory in the 
stores unless it’s a size that’s really common/popular.

yes, for 14", you have to order the tars in.  It has been that way for

[Andrew Strasfogel via Mercedes]

I only buy H rated tires for my 123 wagon.  The $55 Kumho Sense are holding
up well after 4 years.  195X70Hx14.

Re: [MBZ] 400E Fun -- Costco Michelins

[Floyd Thursby via Mercedes]

Tell me about the Michelins -- the LF tire on the SD went bad -- really 
warn on inside and outside down to cords and the belt separated almost 
all around the inside and some on the outside. Kinda weird, like it had 
run really low inflation for a long time but it has been aired up OK.  I 
had only seen the outside edge so was also thinking maybe the camber 
adjustment had gone wonky on that side, and was going to get the 
alignment checked, but now it looks like something else.  Maybe the tire 
itself went bad, they are maybe 4 years old, still a lot of tread left.  
Anyway, I need to get a coupla tires to replace that one and I guess the 
other front one too, use the other one for a spare now.


I'll probably go by Costco tomorrow so can take the tires and see what 
they have but if you can fill me in that would be good.
