2010 S CLASS vs OLDER S CLASS Sport package Tires
What tires are used on the 2010 S Class Sports Package?
Are they different from lets say the 2007-2009 S Class Sports Package?

In the case they use the same tires, they should be about the same.

I've heard the Continentals ride a bit harder and have less grip than Michelins, but last longer. The Michelins tend to ride softer and usually provide the better handling.

My 2007 S550 had continental Sports Contact. I think these were summer tires. My 2010 S550 has continental Pro Contact. I think these are all-season. I feel less grip on this. Tire squeaks more in corners.

Whatever you do, don't use Contis.
They are the equivalent of 87 gas grade.
Michelins all the way(93 grade) then Sumitomos(91 grade) than ... nothing.
Unless City drive below 40 mph.
