C63 AMG COUPE

The wheel quality is bad why would you want to put such cheap wheels on a 70k car? If its a c230 i get it but i would rather leave the stock wheels on and save yourself $$

Are you for real? If you are going to stick around a car forum you really oughtta learn the difference between wheels and tires before you start running your mouth.

Thanks for the input Diamond, you're a real gem.

And it's not like these are Generals or Sumitomos (which FYI have a ardent fan base with some of the P-car folks on 6speedonline).

The vredesteins are a quality European-made UHP tire that deliver a good ride - with perhaps the sexiest tread pattern out there. Though I wouldn't dare put them in a "the best" bucket like PS2s, you'll get twice as many miles out of these than with a typical max performance tire. Beyond this, I have yet to see a less than glowing review about them.

In all, appreciate the thread bump.

I've personally gone through 2 sets of these tires on my G35 coupe and can attest for their performance, durability and reliability. Great tires for the money and I wouldn't hesitate to put them on my C63.
