Mc6 cannot get 350 for 245 profile tyre..or u mistaken it for 215/45r17. This one quite common. But 245 so rare.

maybe you can look for v12evo2. They are very good tyres and value for money.

Yes for 8.5j wide can still use 225 tires. I suggest you use that so can get much better tires rather than use 245 but then settle for not good ones. For 225/50/17, you can buy the Hankook V12 Evo 2 for under your rm350 budget. It's the best value for money tires now.

Can try for Viking Protect PT5 also, but am not sure if they have 245/45. I know those 225/45 or 225/55 are below rm300.

Another brand that I saw my relative using is Rovelo, i have never use it, but I saw him using it on both his old merc, I guess it should be kind of worthy budget tyres.
