Mercedes e class - W210 tyres on a w211. ? - mondeoman2013

Hi,

I saved the old wheels when I scrapped my old w210 estate. They are fitted with 3 almost new tyres 215/55/16. The wheels themselves are pretty ropey.

I now have a w211 with 225/55/16 tyres.

I understand that the wheels cannot be used but would it be possible / legal/ advisable to use the tyres ?

Thanks
