Hi - I have a (new to me) 2011 GL350 BT. I am wondering what is the least cost/best experience set up other owners have used in the past. I am a first time MB owner and want to do this at best cost - the searches I did were not all that fruitful for me.

Thanks for your help!

Hi 32of32, I you have a GL with 18' rims, I have a set of winter tires for sale right now. The specs are 255/55R18.
They are great winter tires and got me around town, up hills, in/out non-plowed drive ways, and roads while everyone else was at a stop because they didn't have the right tires. If they fit your car, you can be very happy with them.

Here's the link to check them out:

My 2010 350GL BTC now has Pirelli Scorpions 275-55/R20 non-runflats. I bought them at SAM's club for $130 ea installed&balanced. If you keep your vehicle shodded with run-flats, I suggest getting a spare tire from a junkyard off of a GL450/550. Its a compact spare but it'll do the job. If you go full size, look at Ebay they have OEM rims and OEM tire sensors. Just get a tire locally.

Thanks for the ideas. I've decided to go with 18" e63 replicas and 265-60 Cooper WSC tires. Great price and looks like great reviews on the tires.
