Tires MICHELIN or Hankook

Crossclimate 2, especially if you get snow.

we went with hankook because discount tire carries them, and we have been buying tires from discount for 20+ years. so far, smooth and quiet, and nice range increase

I have them on my AMG GT 53 and they are glued to the road - outstanding tires. Reasonably durable too

They are awesome, pretty much the best thing you can run that isn't a track tire, and you'll be amazed at their wet handling.

I've had experience with both the pilot super sports and now the pilot 4s on my 21 c63s that I drive 3-4 days out the week all year around and I live in the transitionzone of the US. The super sports are much stickier esp in the summer when the roads are hotter you can actually hear the tires picking up rocks and pebbles and they chirp when you put your foot down; however in the rain they spin and if its too cold they hop and skip esp when turning kind of like a bad loose lower ball joint. The pilot 4s are not as sticky or grippy as the SS’s but all around wet/cold/hot they are a great tire if your going to driving in all four seasons. I've noticed with the 4s even in the summer my car fish tails from a stop trying get traction even in the summer months they're spinning instead of gripping like SS. I hope this adds some context. I will be going back to the SS’s though and I won't be driving it in the rain like I used to as I have other vehicles for that

I run that exact tyre on my Merc E63 AMGs and like most people have said, easily the best performance tyres out there.

Awesome!

Like driving on a lake at day break.

Seriously.

After i bought my E53 i went back in a month later and replaced my Conti with the Michelin.

i love the 4s, they perform really good in anything. Good Braking, very good dry and wet traction.

Pilot Sport AS4 255/35R19s fit the stock Scottsdale rims on the 40th, reckon they'd fit the Adelaides as well, if anyone is looking for something wider & skinnier than 235/40R19. They were noticeably less responsive than the stock 235/35R19 summers that came on the car.

There is a chance they worked better in very hot climate but in the mild Pacific North West they didn’t perform well. Half the performance for half price. Once I switched to Michelins all traction problems went away.
