New wheels are in but have a question about tires.
Hi All,
My new BC forged wheels are finally in. I went with stock sizing and wondering if I should get new tires too (PS4S). The factory tires are in good shape with only about 10k miles on them and I'd guess at least another season left in them. Any thoughts? I'd like the newer tires but feel like I'd be throwing money out the window
Thanks!
That pic looks good but look carefully at the very inner of the fronts as these cars have a lot of camber and mine wore thru the cords there in 11,000 miles
also the PS 4S are much better in every way--traction/ noise/ ride.
Thank's, I'll take a look at the inner portion of the tires. They actually have fewer miles than the odometer since I swap to winter tires half the year.

Today, I changed my stock tire Michelin Sport Sports with 1,200 miles to PS4S based on reviews and safety esp. wet conditions. My C63S coupe is 2 months old. Tire Change was at a MB dealership who advised to stay with same size.
Only drove 25 miles home, tires felt real good . I felt.the upgrade had more grip/traction. The roads were dry today. I'm glad I made the change as this is my daily driver and will be driven in all conditions including wet conditions. MB also did Alignment.The cost did not play a big part in my decision but safety, traction and a upgrade did.
The best.
