Conti wintercontact TS830P.
I wanted the run flat version.
I'm north of TO and my drive to work is mainly on country roads.(50km round trip)
No issues the last couple of days.
Tires handled the slippery conditions with no issues.

2016 Mercedes C450 AMG, 2015 BMW X5 x35i Luxury
I just picked up my C450 today. It's pretty fantastic! I was coming from a 2009 BMW 335 xDrive M Sport. So far, it's a hell of a lot more performance in every category compared to the BMW. I immediately put on the Continental TS830P winters and they feel pretty good- still felt very precise despite the warmer temps today.
The worst thing about the car would definitely be the Mercedes Command system. It's very confusing and the menu systems aren't organized too well. Considering I also just picked up a 2015 BMW X5, the iDrive system is a lot better. The Burmeister sound system is pretty good- sounds about the same as my HK system in the X5.
I couldn't get the internet to work however, despite connecting my iPhone 6 Plus via Bluetooth or USB. Can anyone help me with this?
Despite these minor issues though, I'm extremely happy with this car! Can't get enough of that Sport + exhaust sound

I too can't get the internet to work either. I run a BlackBerry Passport - I think I have everything enable. And even on the homescreen of my phone it says that I'm connected to Mercedes-Benz and that Internet Tethering is enabled... When I go to connections status in the Command system, it says not connected to the internet.

It's not bad, although I don't know where ppl are finding that you can send Google Maps from your phone to the car? I'm just looking at the Mercedes Apps and there's nowhere to import more apps.
On another note- car handled over 1 ft of snow without any issues yesterday, meanwhile my X5 with all seasons got stuck in my driveway!
Also doing a bit of modding today and installing ceramic tint on the windows.

Hi guys I have been seriously considering this car (I think I am in love). Question on pricing. How much off MSRP have you been able to get in Canada or specifically GTA region? So far without any haggling I have been offered 3% off MSRP from my local dealer. Think I can get it to 6%?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Thanks.
So that's almost like interest free loan for a year and reason why I'm pondering C450 instead of waiting for C43.

Got my car last night
Woke up to this today!
Fortunately I had ordered winter wheels and tires.
For those still looking for a winter setup I ended up with this:
Replika R167 18x8 et32
conti TS830 225/45 all round
Didn't drive much today so cannot comment on these tires yet.
The wheels are listed on the Replika website as Audi Reps.
I'm fine with the look and as long as they do their job in the winter, I'm happy
