C/D e550 CAB TESTED

looks like it has the summer Conti SC3 tires..

Wow this thing brakes and handles very well in CAB form.. I can imagine the results for a coupe would be slightly better, specially with those of us that upgraded from crappy Pirelli's to Michelin's with wider rims.

4300lbs 12.8 at 111

we need for the mags to test the coupe..

I would say the review is spot on with my experience in our '13 550 Cab. And the 0-60 in 4.4sec is more confirmation of the underrated 402hp. Its not a sports car but it sure does very well.

What are the best tires to upgrade from the stock Pirellis? I have to change all 4 tires very soon and will switch to a different brand if they give better performance.
