Mercedes Benz E320 cdi 2005 model Tyres

Excellent winter tyres. Dry grip is steady and progressive, with little indication that the tyre is a winter tyre (except for an increase in noise towards the end of its tread life). in the wet the tyres begin to really excel, with formidable grip under all situations (including hard driving under less than optimal conditions). driving in snow is almost like driving on normal dry roads (almost, but obviously not the same). At speeds up to 30/40 mph the in town the tyres are incredibly well behaved with strong grip under accelration, cornering and all important breaking. thoroughly recommended, however the "Sottozero" tyres from Pirelli (their top of the range) are a little better in all aspects described

Wet & Dry grip much the same. Ice, look out if you have ABS. Replaced Continentals as the rear noise was. To be fair after buying the car the rear tyres (265/35-18)were running with about 3.5mm tread, 8000 miles reduced this to 1.7mm when the noise was worst. They stuck to the road like glue. I "can" loose the Goodyears with 376ft/lbs of torque, complete loss if not for traction control. Ride is great!---Front tyres also new 245/40-18 F1, No problem at all (except Ice)Havn't lost steering or braking even slightly. All tyres wearing perfectly square.
