You can get away with summer/wet tires, in the winter, I run a dedicated winter just incase I happen to run across freezing/icy roads.

My car has toyo proxes and in the slightest amount of moisture on the ground it cannot hook up. I want to look into a different set of tires.

Wow, heavy on the foot? JK. I have a set of used, Conti 3 for Fronts and Conti Dw for rears, with about 50% or a little less left on thread. They are the OE 18" sizes. If yours needs replacement, make me an offer.

Welcome to the Benz family! Great choice picking this E55! I noticed you mentioned about tires for this area. Well, I just put on summer tires that had good rating for wet and dry. It doesn't snow much where I am, as I don't think the Seattle area does either, does it?

It's kind of quiet in this section, but I know there are plenty of people where you are. Post up any questions of problems.

I'm not sure on your car, but mine has a button to the left of the dash gauge. You have to hold down for 3sec.
