great tire choice for GLK 350
I put 245 45 20 Michlins Pilot Sports AS 3 's on my car. The look is good and the difference in the ride is very noticable No issues with the bigger size.It is much smoother and very quiet.
The OEM Scorpins were harsh .
They are worth the money for such a high end car ride.

I have 3000 miles on them which was a trip to Fla.They are great Smooth with NO wandering..I ran 35 pounds in the front and 39 in the rear as I was loaded up and there was little difference in the ride from 33 all round. .I got 99v tires.The ride is 100% better than the Scorpion's. There is a slight rub in the fender wells with a extremely sharp parking turn, I mean at LOCK only. I am not concerned at all about it.I will trade this SMALL annoyance for not having to buy the Scopions again They were HARSH!!! When my 350 was in for an oil service they gave me a 2014 350 with Scorpios on it and there was a little snow on the ground , they were not as good as the AS'3, not even close.Also the tires took VERY little weight to balance.I had them Road Forced balanced to make sure the job was done right.It is well worth the money

Thanks for the quick reply. I was going to get the 103 load rating at first but it looks like this might be the tire that people are complaining about road noise. I noticed that the GLK's with 19's on were 99V load rating which made me realize we don't need the XL rating tire. I will be purchasing soon and keep you posted

Try this tire on the 19 inch wheel 245/50zr19. Much better then OEM. $195 at Tire Rack
