ML55 amg 2000, need tyre help!
I own a 2000 ML55 AMG and I have to change the tires on it because they are very worn;
the problem is that the original size (285/50 R18) is not available at all in egypt!
The only 2 sizes available in egypt are:
Continental: 255/55 R18
or
Goodyear: 265/60 R18
Which would better fit my ML for handling and high speeds?

depends on the weather
here are the 2 sizes that would work correctly
285/50-18
285/55-18
the sizes you listed may not have the proper load capacity, diameter, or internal construction
285/50-18
285/55-18
the sizes you listed may not have the proper load capacity, diameter, or internal construction
