Owners manual looks like it was a Mercedes version - anything special I need to know or do I just by an ipod 4 and plug in

If there's a 30 pin male in the glovebox, iPod 4, or a Tune2Air Bluetooth audio adapter to go wireless.

Thank you

What do you like for tires on this car

Florida - Wet roads - Had Michelin mv on my S500 - were fishtailing at low speed in light to heavy rain - changed to parelli - road great but wore fast

18" on this car - currently mixed matched rear and from - Continental front and Laufenn on back - same size all 4

tune2air is pricey. i bought one called coolblue for like $30 on amazon. only downside is your playlist doesnt show up on the screen and able to change songs thru the car you have to do it on your phone, but for $30 that did i expect diamonds and hookers? lol either way i cant complain lol
