Pirelli' son you ml63?

Hi amg fans!

If you have pirelli tires please specify which ones you have and how good you think they are?

I might be considering the p zéro Rosso for next track time

Thanks so much

P.s: sorry about the spelling on the subject title! "Pirelli's on your ml63"

Hi,

Mine arrived from factory with Pirelli P Zero (not Rosso). Need to now replace them (after 15.000 km) and have ordered somewhat reluctantly the same. The only two options for 20" for ML63 (tyres are different from base ML 20"/21") seemed to have been the same Pirellis, or Continentals, and the Pirellis could be sourced more easily. They are very good tires, but worn too quickly (only road use with 2 kids on board most of the time) and when you do push the car, they are not progressive on the limit / loose grip abruptly on limit (as is my experience generally with Pirellis) which takes some of the confidence away if you decide to really push. With worn tyres the car even snapped to wild oversteer on a (quick) exit at a damp junction. Having said that, when not worn it is not that easy to reach their limits.....
