New 22" wheels on!

Just put on new 22" wheels with 295/30X22 on my ML350 -07. The ride is ok but the noise for 50-110 km/h is not what I like. Have anyone the same problem?

I also just mounted my set of Brabus 22's with Pirelli Zero Assimetrico's and the ride/sound is great. Just came back from an Autobahn trip and the noise at 220km/h is not any different as on the stock 20" AMG's.

I will try to take some pics soon and post them.

I have the Michelin 285/35/22 and don't have any problem with road noise -- plus the car handles awesome!

Looks good -- though I'd go ahead and completle the look by lowering it a bit! Mine is only lowering 30MM but it makes a huge difference!

It´s Kahn Design 10x22 ET 50...and I will drop it with H&R around 1,5" . I think I have to change tires to some with better quality. I hate the noise from them. The reason I pic the ML was the silence when i drow it. Now its more comfort in my SL55. So don´t try to save some on cheap tires. My Michelin Pilot Sport on my SL is perfect.

You're so right about those cheap tyres, I once bought some cheap ones ("starperformer" or something like that) from dackonline.se and they were so noisy that I had both front wheelhubs replaced before I discovered that it was the tyres making the noise. A costly affaire on my W211 and I had to throw those useless crappy tyres far away. Never buy cheap tyres
