I'm curious about how long your tread lasts on your W210. My PZeros wore out (in back) after ~15,000 miles.
Anyone have W210 experience with the ContiProContact or the Michelin Pilot Exalto A/S?

why the hell would you do burnouts in a 220bhp v6 mercedes sedan????
fwis, the pilot exaltos are rated extremely well, so I would get those. I just got two yoko avid h4s and they look good. Hopefully they ride nicer and are quieter than my worn snow tires.

Its just fun, I do it just because. Not like everyday, 3 times a month I would assume.

I have Conti SportContacts (dunno if these are European-only) but I'm not going with Conti's anymore cuz they seem to develop a flat spot. I've never had issues with Michelin's so back to Pilots it'll be when the Conti's wear out...

if you don't get 10K out of your tires, you're doing something seriously wrong. Between alignments, rotations or flipping if you're staggered, you should get well over 10K, even on full on summer tires!

Aren't the ContiPro's OEM on these cars? I had some kind of Conti's, I believe they were the ContiPro's because they were all seasons, and I loved them. I have harder Pirelli's now, and while they definitely handle better, I prefer the quiet of the Conti's...they do wear out faster, of course, but they're a nice ride.

I love the way the PZero Nero M&S handles, but I don't care for the harsh, noisy ride and abysmal tread life. Am leaning towards replacing with the V-rated ContiProContact.
