Hello All, I need some tire recommendations, for my S350 4MATIC please! I have the Contis on it now, but want to go to more reliable , better handling, more durable tires. I need both summer and Winter capability if possible, we get snow, heavy at times
Currently I am considering:
Michelin A/S3s
Pirelli P7 pzero nero
Cooper Zeon
Bridgestone Potenza
Hankooks Ventus
Conti Extreme Contact DWs

I am leaning towards the Michelins, but I am willing to consider other tires based on forum member experiences

Regards and Thanks

I recently replaced my Continental DWs with the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S3s. 255/40/19. They're a little quieter than the Continentals and are pretty sticky. Went with the all-seasons since I'm in Chicago. Best deal I found was at Costco.

Yeah, I have been looking at those pretty hard, but I wanted to get some additional info on other brands.

I'm currently running Nitto Motivo on my S550 and performance and grip is great. These are all season, and are rated 560 UTQG. So far they are wearing even and still have crazy tread after over one year on my car... Definitely recommend them.

Thanks how are they in the SNOW?

Nuru

BTW, how are they in the Snow?

They feel solid in snow, traction feels good, of course you need to be more careful with stopping distances, etc... in this heavy car... but I try to drive the R350 4Matic in the snow. =)

But in comparison to the Hankook Ventus I had previously they feel much more predictable in snow.

Good luck.

Thanks

Michelin pilot sport A/S 3's love them. I had the continental DWS on my bmw 750 and liked them until I learned about the vibration issues due to balancing balancing issues. Did I mention the fact that I love the michelins? The performance on the AS3's are like summer tires and they are also great in the winter.

Nuru

Thanks, how good were they in the winter?

they are great.... they just hold and hold well. Great ride.

Nuru

Thanks for the info!

late to the party, but I just installed Michelin's Pilot Super Sport, maybe a little overkill, but I love Michelin's and these ones are awesome tires, now let's see how long they last

Nuru

Thanks for your input. I need tires that can handle the snow when it comes, and I think the A/S 3s are a bit better at it.
