Mercedes-Benz 260 E Spare Tire Sizes

The Mercedes-Benz 260 E has used a 5x112mm bolt pattern for all models from 1986 to 1989 along with a tire diameter of 25.0" tall. Using a temporary spare tire with a diameter close to the standard tire has many benefits, especially for modern vehicle applications. Tire diameter as well as wheel diameter clearance have been taken into account for Mercedes-Benz 260 E spare tire selections. In this case, a 125/80R17 temporary spare tire is the recommendation for all applications.
