2016 GLE replacement tires
The tires on my GLE 2016 seem to be getting close to needing replacement. What is the general consensus on what’s the best out there for replacement tires ?

Thanks

plus one, you can get them at costco too, assuming you have a membership, only downside is 200/250 (US dollars) per tire, but worth every cent

GO for the defenders over the premiers. They are a bit more sturdy with all the same features; the GLE is a heavy car. This GLE is a brand new car with new tires (no slippage, the gears shift a lot more smoothly). And yes, get them from costco!

I've been very happy with the Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Seasons that came as original equipment on mine. When I replaced them I went 10mm wider than stock which looks good and offers more rim protection with no noticeable downside.
20" Pirelli Scorpion Verde

I had Defenders and they were a great tire but made a lot more noice then the Premiers. All that extra tread had to squeeze the air out as it was rolling down the road
