I would but I am in Florida. However, it is a bit chilly today.

My winter set up this year was a move to Raleigh, NC

But last year it was Pirelli Snow Carvers. 225/45/17 on used OEM Wheels from eBay

Front 245/40/19 Michelin Ice-x's and rear 275/35-19 Blizzak LM-60's on fake stock wheels. Amazing traction on ice but it hasn't snowed since I put them on last Saturday and no pics yet. Sure are a huge improvement over Continental DW's on ice!

Blizzaks make our C300 a real winter car. I've driven through over a foot of snow with this setup.

Suspension is all stock ABC system as is my tire size. My car is a CL65, not much in common with a C series Mercedes. Here's a pic with the Continental tires.

Guess I went a bit on the cheap here. I went with a set of Sailun Ice Blazer WST1s on an extra set of original rims for the Elegance model that came with the car when I bought it. Excellent grip, stopping power, quiet and smooth riding. Heck, I think these grip and ride better than the Hankook iPikes I previously had on my Maxima which cost $42 more per tire.
