I just put a set of Falken Ziex 512 "V" rated on my 560SL. They are available in H or V. Balanced nicely with little weight, and so far (less than 200 miles) are super. They are made by Sumitomo Tire in Japan. Directional tread. Highly rated by ConsumersReports and a very good value for a performance tire. I purchased them online at vulcantire.com and had them installed at a local shop.
