Mercedes Benz E Class Estate Tire Review Highlights

Writing about the Michelin CrossClimate 2 given 56% (265-35-18-)
Driving on mostly country roads for 4000 easy going miles
On paper an excellent tire. I bought a set of these for my Mercedes E220CDI estate thinking they were a good buy but it was a very expensive mistake. I paid £500 for the rears (265/35/18) and £300 for the fronts (245/40/18). The rubber is very, very soft. After 6 months and 4000 miles 3 tires had to be replaced due to multiple cuts through to the cords in the tread area of both rear tires and a small stone through the sidewall on one of the fronts. Just goes to show that you can read tire tests all day long but real world driving can be completely different. These tires are absolutely not suitable for UK country roads. If you stick to motorways you may be OK but I have wasted £800 on tires that effectively lasted 6 months and became dangerous. My local garage says they have lots of problems with these tires failing before they are worn out in terms of tread depth. And if you are wondering it's not how I drive. I am an advanced driver.

Driving on a combination of roads for 7000 average miles
I've had PS5s on the front on my 2016 S212 E-Class for around a year (7-10k ish) and they've been excellent so far, performance of all kinds is great. I've noticed in the last month or so the tires are starting to step on the inner tread blocks or go out of shape so they now sound like a pair of faulty wheel bearings. I am a technician at a Mercedes dealer & use our aligner to regularly check my geometry which is always fine, shocks and bushings, etc are all ok so I'm forced to conclude its the tires themselves. I'll be hanging on to them as long as I can tolerate the noise but I suspect i'll have had enough before theyre worn out (they currently have around 4-5mm remaining). Oddly my 120,000 mile Seat Exeo with the same tires doesn't have this problem!

Driving on a combination of roads for 32 average miles
I'm on my second one set of these run flat tires now. First set... front did 32000, rear 24000. Great wear and grip compared to a previous Pirelli set. Great tires and fabulous mileage for a large car.

Writing about the Michelin Primacy 4 Plus given 0% (245-45-18-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 2000 average miles
When I put the tires on I was actually a bit disappointed. I got a strange "resounding" sound that I couldn't identify, as it didn't always have anything to do with the road surface. But after 2-3000 km the resounding sound disappeared and today I am really very happy with the tires. I'm not into "sports tires" anymore (used to be) and don't drive hard in the car etc. so for me the tire is absolutely perfect. It is extremely quiet compared to the Primacy 3, Primacy 4 that I have been driving on before the Primacy 4+. It is admittedly a somewhat softer tire which gives a little less feedback in sharp curves, but it is really comfortable as potholes etc. are heard and felt much less. So I am very happy with the Pimacy4+

Writing about the Continental WinterContact TS 860 S given 86% (275-35-19-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 10000 easy going miles
Fitted to a 2017 E Class Mercedes estate. Really impressed with the wet / dry weather performance at low temperatures. Handles very similar to a summer tire and last season were left on until late spring. This is the second season running them and they have hardly worn at all. My car has different tire sizes front and rear so I was limited on choice for manufactures that can provide for both fitments. They were expensive but I have no regrets as they have proven faultless in all conditions and do not go off in warmer conditions like previous winter tires I have had on other vehicles. Highly recommended if you can find them as they have now been superseded by other models.

Driving on a combination of roads for 13000 average miles
Have had many sets of tires, I have to get the XL load rating or they wear out fast. good handling and no issues, just poor wear value Disappointed with these new Eco5 as the back tires have done 13000 miles and are shot.

Writing about the Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport given 90% (245-40-19-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 200 spirited miles
Really good match for my car. Decided to remove the stock Pirelli run flats and go for a good premium’normal’ tire. The difference is night and day. Feel. Comfort. Grip (wet and dry) all improved instantly. I have no idea how long these will last. But for every day driving I can’t imagine there are many out there that are better. If you have a car with noisy run flats these are a significant improvement. Almost sure I’ll buy these again. 9/10. Only drawback is they are not cheap. But you get what you pay for.

Writing about the Landsail LS588 UHP given 94% (245-40-18-W)
Driving on mostly motorways for 35000 average miles
I had them on the front axle on my 2010 Mercedes Eclass E250cdi estate. Done over 35000miles,mostly motorway miles, no problem in the rain,and I found them very quiet also. I have replaced them now with 2020 Landsail ls588 uhp version for about £140 a pair balanced and fitted on.One negative thing I will add that my car rear wheels are bigger 265/35/18,and when I purchased them first time in 2016,on the rear tires both inside walls have cracked within one year. So, for me only the front tires have done the job right 245/40/18.I do recommend them as an cheaper alternative, they lasted 4 years and over 35000miles.

Writing about the Pirelli P 7 given 80% (225-45-17-)
Driving on mostly motorways for 6 easy going miles
Just bought 4 Pirelli p7 Cinturato MO - Immediate comments as I drive back from tire fitters :- Road Noise greater than previous Continentals Suspension seems harder and not such soft ride. Grip seems excellent (dry) Hope they will soften down over next few months as others have said.

Writing about the Falken Azenis FK510 given 87% (240-45-17-V)
Driving on a combination of roads for 20000 spirited miles
I fitted these to my 2003 E Class estate which has 306bhp and more torque. I regularly drive through Europe and on the autobahn at high speeds also. I tend to wear summer tires from April thru November.

I have covered about 20,000 miles - in all conditions in many countries through Europe - including a stormy drive over the Col du Galibier at 2,642m(!) with them and I can confirm that they are excellent in all conditions. Surefooted, predictable and stable at speed. They are also comfortable, though perhaps they are a little noiser than the previous Continental Premium Contact MO spec that I had, but not to a significant degree.

My purchase was based on the tests from AutoBild and Autocar, which were on 17". These tires are good value too and four tires cost the same as the equivalent Michelin Pilot Sport 4s.

Driving on a combination of roads for 18000 average miles
Michelin Pilot Sport 4. Great tires but fast wearing.
Mercedes-Benz E350 Estate 2010. Road conditions: Australia. These tires are great. Very low road noise. Fantastic low noise transfer into the cabin from Australian rough aggregate road surfaces which make up the majority of roads in this country. Fantastic feedback and handling. Great breaking ability in both the wet and dry. Biggest problem is they wear out faster than a daily change of clothes! Yes I drive a 2 tonne E Class Wagon, but all the reviews say that the tires are good wearing. I was expecting at least 30,000 kms, not barely 20,000kms. Considering the price, I did expect more for my dollar. Hardly got double the distance of a set of Pirelli P7's and they were the worst tire I have ever owned. Not going back to the Michelin any time soon. Think it's time for a set of Falken ZE914 again. Brilliant performance with very reasonable wear.
