Looking for a set. Just picked up my new to me 2019 e63s wagon and it’s got summers on. Getting a weird tie rod like feeling when I turn and I’m thinking it’s the summers.
I haz all the dad cars - R63 AMG, 2022 GLB 250, and a 2018 E63 Wagon.
I have a set I don’t need but I’m located in Portland, OR. They are sitting with my wheel guy but if you are interested in covering shipping I can go grab them from his shop. They don’t have a ton of miles on them but I’m not sure if shipping costs would make it worth it to you.
2024 AMG EQE SUV , 2021 E63S Wagon - gone, 2018 E63S Sedan - gone

thought I’d ask here first. I’m in NJ.
You might consider a set of Michelin PS/4 AS instead. Unless you will be driving in deep snow conditions, dedicated winters are probably not needed. The problem with winters is that they will wear excessively once the temps get above 50. I found that switching from PS/4 summers to all-seasons quieted the ride and gave up little in steering response. Since you have a pre-FL wagon, every incremental noise reduction and tire flexibility will be appreciated.
I have both PS AS 4 and Alpine 5 winter tires. I agree that PS 4 AS are close to summers tires. However they get very slippery on ice. I live in NYC coast, so we are getting more freezing after rain & flooding these days then snow. Alpine 5 UHP is not that responsive as PS4 AS, but they are not wearing excessively either unless you drive in summer temps. CrossClimate 2 all weather AS is closer to Alpine 5 winters...
Tiretrack tests are done in the same track loop, so putting the stopping distances with same car gives a good comparison:

If the wagon is a DD, then the dedicated winters could be indicated. However, there is a problem in getting winter tires in the OEM sizes. PA4's are no longer available and Cross-Climates are not made in the OEM size. I've lived in Westchester County and I never drove on freezing rain or snow. There are enough crazy drivers on the road who can't drive in the rain let alone freezing weather.
