Tires
I trying to get new tires for the SL600.
First of all what is the right size? Will 305's in the rear be good and 255's in the front? that is what I have on the SL65.
Also which are the best tires. Eagle F1 GS-D3, Potenza RE960AS Pole Position, or are there any better ones?
thanks

SL500 and A-CLASS
The Toyo T1R is a good tire. I got them on my SLK because I hated the Michelin Primacy. So when my SL needed tires, I got the Toyo T1R. The Toyo T1R is very quiet and has a very strong side wall.

Dont quote me but from one of my other posts I asked about tire sizes on 9.5 and 10" wide rims and I was told the max on a 9.5 would be a 285 or 295. For a 10" you could go 295 or 305.
