OEM Tires
I was wondering what tires came on your E class at delivery? I have heard of all sorts of brands.. and was wondering what was out there. I am thinking of asking for something OTHER than the ContiTouring's on there now for the NAV replacement.
Thanks

I asked for a different tire on the replacement also. I don't know what chance I have of getting it, but in the event anyone asked I would like to have an answer as to to what I would like as a replacement. I am sure it would have to be another standard tire.
Anyone have anything other than the Continental's?

I have the sport package, which should come with "W" rated tires. It came with H-rated continental's. CH95's if I remember correctly. The dealer changed them, without question, when I brought it to his attention. I now have Michelen Pilot's. I love them. Go ahead and ask. Many of us on the forum have had our tires replaced.

I don't have the Sport Package.. and mine came with the H rated Conti's. But I've heard that swapping out to the "sport" tire is usually not a big issue.
Which Michelin Pilots did you end up getting? I have heard the Primacy's are not that good.
