standard replacement tires for 02 E320

I have a 2002 E320 at about 30K miles and the front tires need to be changed. Any suggestions on good replacement tires, or should I stick with the OEMs which I believe are Goodyear Eagle LS?

I guess it all depends on the type of driving,snow,lots of rain,mostly dry,no snow etc.I found the OEM Conti's ok for dry,ok for rain,garbage in snow.I went with Bridgestone Turanza's,,all season,,not bad all around.Except this car,and your's, needs snows for winter.So,the choices are many,,check the tirerack where you can specify what you need,and rate whats available.
