Luke: Recommendation for All-Season SUV tires
Luke,
This isn't MB specific, but thought I'd ask you anyway.
My wife's 2007 Range Rover - Supercharged, need tires. We're in DC, so the OEM Continental CrossContact UHP summer tires have to go, since they're toast anyway, and I want to outfit the truck with all-season tires. If I could get the ContiExtreme DWS in my size, this thread would never needed creation, but alas...
Size is 255/50/20 and I'm looking at the following:
Yokohama Parada Spec-X
Hankook Ventus AS RH07
Firestone Destination ST
Seems like the Yokes have a good rating, but there's little to no info on the other two. Can you make a recommendation for me?

depends on the weather
wow, I totally missed this thread .... sorry ...
If it was my call I would choose the Bridgestone Dueler Alenza but, since it's not one of the choices listed I would opt for the superior handling of the Destination ST.

Holy cow, Luke. Only took a year to reply.... 
Went with the Yoke Parada Spec-X on the Rover. Logged about 20K miles, and they look to be wearing very well. No complaints, they've been excellent in all weather.
