Tire Advice
I'm getting ready to replace the tires on my MY16 G550. Presently running Pirellis 275/55/R19 on OEM rims. Have 22K on the tires and probably have another 6-7K miles left. The tires are wearing OK but getting a little "lumpy" as they near the end of their useful life. I've been looking at Michelins, Continentals and Pirelli as possible replacement. I want an all season tire that the truck came with originally. Most driving is around town and occasional highway so I'm looking for a tire that is quiet with relatively good wear potential. The truck is never used off road. Anyone have any recommendations? The reviews on most tire websites don't refer to the G Wagon specifically but relate to other medium to large SUV's. I'm leaning towards Michelin because of my experience with them on a Denali pickup that I previously owned. Thanks for any suggestions.
