WHAT TYRES DOES A 2009 R class come with as standard..
on 20" wheels? I have an R500 arriving next week, and i am trying to sorce winter Tyres, which is proving very difficult. So I was curious at what tyre he car actually comes with. I guess its probably some kind of all weather tyre?
If anyone has taken delivery of an R500 on 20" factory rims please advise!!
Thank You,
John

The R500 is no longer available in North America. What is available is the R350 gas powered or the R320 Bluetec (diesel powered). I can tell you that the R320 sits on Bridgestone Dueler H/L 400 255/50/19 runflats (no spare tyre). At least our 09 R320 has these 4-season tyres. I am getting same size Bridgestone LM 25's winter run-flats this week (same size) because it's the law in our province.
Take care

R350 4-matic
I believe the OEM tire is the Continental ContiSportContact 2's in 265/45x20. For the 500. HP Tour Latitude's for the 320/350's.
Hope this helps.

Thanks guys. Cant get snow tires anywhere in england at the moment and Pirelli are quoting 3 weeks delivery time. Wish I had gotten onto this earlier.
Dont think the conti sport contacts are good enough.
