Tires - Clarification 265/45/20
I have searched and read previous posts but have questions still. 2018 GLE RWD 20" wheels. Pirelli 265/45/20 came with the vehicle and at 21k miles they are close to needing replacement and they are loud as well. I could probably get another 10k or so out of them but the noise is irritating to me. I see posts recommending the Michelin Premier and Defender but I am not seeing that size available in Premier or Defender. Latitude comes up as well as Pilot. Pilot is the Michelin tire of choice at Tire Rack and Discount Tire. Costco shows the Premier and Defender in 19s but not 20s. I am in Houston so winter tires are not needed but I want a quieter ride.

True but it sounded like others in threads I searched were talking about the same set up I had and were somehow getting the defenders and premiers in that size. You are correct in that if it doesn't come in a 20" then you can't put it on 20" wheel. My confusion surrounded 20" owners getting those specific tires and I just wasn't seeing them.
