[W126 Coupe] What tires for my 3-piece AMG wheel

[Axel Wulff]

Franco,

I run Kumho 712s, 245/45 in the front and 275/40 at the rear on my 3-piece 
AMG rims.

I wanted a little more lip on the rear wheels than the 265 would provide to 
protect the rims from curbing,  and the 245s go better with the 275s 
(overall whell diameter is the same, 65.2 cm).
