Smooth and Quiet tire for C63?
Hello Forum!
Currently, I have BFGoodrick g-Force T/A KDW tires all around. This tire has great grip with really stiff side walls. It allows me to take corners very easily. However, I'm getting kind of sick of the road noise. It is loud enough to where the person on the phone can barely hear me. I catch myself constantly listening to music because the road noise just gets annoying. Also, the stiff tires are really fun when I'm on my spirited drive, but I've had my fun with these tires. I'm also looking for something with a softer side wall in hopes that the tire can absorb more of the shock, giving me a smoother ride.
Any recommendation on smooth and quite tires for the C63?

The Hankook EVO V12 are amazing tires, best bang for your buck. If you want a soft tire with comfort in mind, Id say you should look into Continental tires. Either the Sport contacts or Extreme contact DW.

I have just fitted what must be one of the finest sets of tyres I've ever experienced.
You may not have heard of them much as they have only recently been released but they're the Continental SportContact 5P.
They have awesome grip wet or dry, they're quiet and don't squeal round bends...the difference between these and the stock Conti SportContact 3's is huge and you wouldn't think they're from the same manufacturer.

I have those continental SportContact 5P on my 2010 C63. I guess they switched over from the Pirelli's during mid year productions because you guys were complaining so much.
