Cheked out the reviews.... Some say they are great, some will never buy them again. Seems like same tire make performs diferently depending on the size. Stil can't make up my mind

I LOVE my Yoko AVS DBs.!
Quiiiiiiiiet with excellent handling on my SL (205 65 VR15). Life is a series of trade offs, and so are tire qualities. Let us know your decision and how it works out for you. Happy Hunting

FWIW, the 205-60/15 AVS db's on my wagon are much quieter and better handling than the MXV4 Plus's on my sedan.

would also endorse Yokohama AVS Db -- using on daughter's 420SEL -- 205/65/15 V-rated at $70 each. Exceptionally quiet in straight line, some noticeable noise in turns. Very good in wet weather and fine in dry.

I had great luck with Nokian NRV tires on my w124. They were smooth running, really quiet, very affordable, and v-speed rated.
Check out their website. Steve
