18" Tire recommendation needed
Hi all,
The w220 is in need of new shoes. Will not see any snow, priority on comfort and handling ... size would be 245/45 18 front and back.
After some research, I narrowed my choice down to 3 in no particular order:
- Michelin Primacy MXV4
- GoodYear Assurance ConforTred Touring
- Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 XL
Any one has any personal recommendations...I'll accept other contenders as well...
Thanks in advance,
Marc

Eagle GS-D3's is one of my all time favorites.
And well for the Michelin's I have always said and stand by it " Friends don't let friends buy Michelins"
Over priced, over rated, short life span, enough said.
Good luck

I have owned the Goodyear's F1 GS-D3's on a staggered 18" set for years. The rears on my S500 will only go 10K the fronts 20K. They do not make any noise until they need replacing, cornering very good and they look amazing on my AMG rims. By the way I do not drive that hard and most of the miles are highway miles in the summer.
