Tires for E55 AMG
What are the best tires for an E55 AMG (for comfort vs racing)? Continental (stock), Michelin, or Pirelli? I just bought Michelin Tires (A/S 3) with 500 AA A.

what's the difference between pilot super sports and pilot sport a/s 3? On Michelin's website I read the stats on both tires and the A/S 3's looked better, but not sure.
