Did anyone get HANKOOK NOBLE tires as their factory tire?
I have a 2018 E300 sport with night package and P2 and it came stock with HANKOOK NOBLE tires. They are definitely Mercedes approved OEM tires as it says MOE right on them. Has anyone else gotten them? I want to see if you are experiencing the same ride quality as I am...

I got Pirelli tires, but I specified that brand in my purchase agreement. AFAIK in the US there are 4 different tire brands that randomly come with the vehicle - Continental, Hankook, Michelin and Pirelli.

Also, the GOOD YEAR tires. I swear I have seen Michelins on the E300 before, but they dont come up as OEM tires on any popular tire websites.
Wonder why they randomly source different brands? Im pretty sure all c300s came with coninentals.. but i can be mistaken.

It's pretty standard. Single source of failure. You want to have multiple brands in case there's a problem at a particular factory, strike or whatever reason. Otherwise with just one supplier, any problem and you've got a bunch of cars with no tires that you can't sell.
