The tire brand for the Mercedes-Benz C180L is Continental, and the model is 225/50-R17. Below is some relevant information about Continental: 1. Introduction: Continental AG was founded in 1871 and is headquartered in Hanover, Germany. It is the world's third-largest tire manufacturer and Europe's largest automotive parts supplier. 2. Company Honors: For 130 years, Continental AG has been producing high-quality tires. In 2004, Continental achieved an annual turnover of 11.4 billion euros, producing 70 million car tires and 4.5 million industrial tires annually. It is the largest tire manufacturer in Germany, ranked second in Europe, fourth in the world, and first in industrial tires globally. Today, Continental is one of the leading suppliers in the automotive industry, providing extensive technology and expertise in tires, braking systems, vehicle dynamics control technology, electronics, and sensor systems. Ensuring personal driving safety and superior comfort is the relentless goal of Continental.
I've driven the Mercedes-Benz C180L several times, and the original tires are usually the Continental PremiumContact 6 series, size 205/55 R16. It drives quite steadily, with low noise and good comfort for daily city commuting, especially suitable for medium-speed driving. If the tires wear out too quickly, it might be due to driving habits or road conditions. Regularly checking tire pressure and tread depth can extend their lifespan. Additionally, different model years may come with different brands, such as some being equipped with Michelin Primacy 4, but most have this configuration. I suggest new owners first check the label on the door frame to confirm the model before rushing to replace them; generally, they can last around 50,000 kilometers. In winter, it's also necessary to consider switching to winter tires, and having a set of anti-slip tires is safer. In short, understanding the original tires can help you save money and drive with peace of mind.
