Tires replacement

I am looking for tires replacements for my car and came across these ones. Are they decent tires for MB350 BT?

Michelin's Latitude Tour HP N0 GX size 265 45 R20.
Cost Can$265.00 each.

Thanks,

Sergio

Its one of the OEM supplied tires recommended by tirerack.com . I have always found Michelins deliver fantastic MPG and long lifetime mileage. I can't wait to see what kind of mileage I get out of the Dunlops that came on the car. I generally feel tha Goodyear products wear like erasers, but might be a bit stickier than the harder Michelin rubber compounds... You have to figure in the mounting/balancing costs even though the cost of the Dunlop tires is about half the cost of the others if you only get half the lifespan. That equals twice the labor to change out the tires. Time will tell. I have a Dunlop equipped 2015 w/ 5,000 miles on it.

Michelin Latitude Tour HP are considered by many SUV owners as the best choice. Some people wont accept any other tyres mounted on their vehicle, even if that means paying extra cash on delivery day.

Michelin Latitude Tour HP are the best I have ever used. Quiet, good grip and lasts a long time. I made exchanging tires and wheels a part of my contract on my LX.

I've had them on another SUV and they were great.

The N0 in the description is a Porsche qualifier, the same tire without that N0 designation may be less expensive.
The Porsche tax is usually higher than the Mercedes tax.

I live in the Northeast and just got Nokian WRG3's put on my ML and they are GREAT so far. They are year-round tires, but handle the snow and ice very well. They are also quiet and comfortable on dry road, and my MPG hasn't changed from the stock tires. They are a little beefier and have nice tread to give the car a more aggressive look. A bit expensive but I would definitely recommend if you live anywhere that deals with year round weather
