Replacement Tires for ML63 AMG
I currently have 22,600 miles on my 2007 ML63 and will be having the OEM Continental tires replaced tomorrow by my M-B Dealer with the same make/model tires. I have been very pleased with the combination of performance and tire tread wear with the Conti's so will be staying with them. My M-B dealer will provided me a discounted price for the tires, installation and balancing and is currently running a special promotion of including a 4-wheel alignment at no cost to me with the purchase of 4 new tires through them. Also, these tires have worked surprisingly well for me on the snow covered local streets and roads in northern NJ during the approx. 4-6 weeks of snowy winter weather we get here. I take it slowly driving thru the snow and have been pleasantly surprised in my ability to not slip too much. The all-wheel dirve of the ML does add significantly to this ability, compared to my previous rear-wheel drive E55 AMG with the OEM Goodyear Eagle1 tires, that refused to make any headway on a very slight sloped road if covered with even light snow, (very embarrasing....). I fully expect to get 22,500 miles out of my next set of Conti's.
I considered the Pirelli zero rossos, having read a number of reviews about them and have concluded that the additional performance they would afford me would not really be worth the trade off of the likely reduced tire life due to accelerated tread wearing down from the softer rubber used for those tires.
