Best Tyres for the Mercedes Benz ML350

Very good dry grip and handling especially when new. In wet, the tyres performed good but not as good as in the dry. The tyres proved to be robust on bad road surfaces and over many potholes. In general I cannot fault the tyres for the general driving experience. The only downside was the tyres did not last long (approx. 15K miles) which was surprising to me as 70% of the mileage was in town with average speeds below 40mph, and rest on motorways at the national limits. At nearly £300 each tyre, I believe these high performance tyres are wasted if majority of driving is low speed city driving. For this reason alone, I will not buy them again.

These max figures may seem weird, but I genuinely find that these cheap tyres are excellent all-rounders. I have them mounted on my W166 ML350 Benz and while I don't drive it as if I stole it, the car does get some vigorous handling. Wet or dry road, there's no difference, they're quiet at any speed, they don't generate any anxiety on tight corners, although the car's electronics do take over if I approach the limit, and the wear factor is quite amazing. At 38,000km, there's still plenty of tread above the wear bars and I estimate that another 25k-30k is well within expectations. I'd definitely buy them again.

15k miles on Mercedes ML350. Understeer took the corners off in Scottish summer driving. Good confidence in snow, rain and general usage. Should not expect a 2t SUV to handle so well and the tyres took the punishment.

Great tyre in the wet, equally as good in the dry. Expensive and fast wearing (25,000 km +/-) Would (did) buy again.

Excelent tyre for all kind of situations. Highly recommended! I live hi up in mountains and the roads are full of snow and ice all winter season. The ride is always comfortable, safe and fun with this kind of tyres.

I do around 5000 miles a year and have found these to be a great all round reasonably priced tyre. I have had them on for over 12months now and still have plenty tread left to see through a couple years more. They perform well in the dry handling well at various speeds, slightly less so in the wet but not excessively poor. I will definitely purchase again.

Used for 3 winter seasons totalling 39000 miles. Really happy with wear. Slightly noisy compared to previous winter tyres but performed well overall

ML350 Bluetec fitted with Pirellis 265/40/21 replaced with same lasted 15 km worn on inside front. Pirelli is a directional tyre limiting full rotation, swapped front to back at 10 km. Over $1000nz / tyre
Replaced with Altenza 295/35/21 cost $320 NZ / tyre. Not directional so can be fully rotated. Currently 30km and still 5-7km remaining. Great tyre, quieter than Pirelli and better handling wet and dry.

Grip well in dry and wet, similar braking pattern to the Continental 4x4 contacts I had before, corners similarly and has a decent tread pattern for off-road usage (best tread pattern I could find in this size due to very limited choice). Traction control light hasn't come on during the icy weather or on wet days unlike the Continentals which tended to spin despite being only a third worn. Have dragged 2.5 tons up some steep hills without any complaints.

I've found these tyres perfectly quiet up to around 60mph, after which things become more noticeable but that's probably down to the tread pattern. Rest assured it's nothing remotely like true off road tyres and as my (petrol) engine sounds like a bus anyway, doesn't really bother me. Due to the tread pattern, these are far superior to the previous Continentals, which were quiet running on road but for supposedly recent 4x4 M&S rated tyres, utterly useless in the few inches of snow in January plus had no grip in the mud - quite embarrassing.

I've bought these with the intention of running all year round; car doesn't do many miles as it's a runaround intended for occasional towing / slipway use, but so far I've used it on the motorway as well as winding / steep potholed country roads and these tyres have to my surprise performed flawlessly considering their cost.
I'm very pleased with them.

I bought these to go on my ML to replace the average tyres it came with, my main aim was for wet grip. These deliver that is spades, simply a brilliant tyre in the wet and equally as good in the wet, they just hang on!
The ML is not a light car so I am not expecting a lot of kilometres out of them, but they are doing very well thus far.
A very good tyre that I will definitely buy again!
