SL55
I dug this old thread up in case anyone ever makes the mistake of putting Michelin PS2's on their car. I swapped cars with a friend who has an SL600 Renntech and sure enough, the car does the snake dance when you step on it. I get out to check the tires, and there they are: Michelin PS2's. Fortunately, I'll be taking my AMG rims with Brigestones. So just another confirmation of the worst tires on the market.

I had a 2006 SL500 with AMG trim and AMG rims. She would "track" like she had a mind of her own. Especially following road repair seams.
Then I got a 2007 SL550 50th Edition. It had wide rims but not AMG and Michelin tires. It tracked fine at various speeds.
Now I have a 2007 SL55 with AMG rims and she tracks fine and no wobble. So tires and rims could be an area to check. Good Luck .
