Which tires for my ML?
I know there's a tire forum, but I wanted to ask this specifically of other ML drivers.
I currently am running Michelin 4x4 XPC 265/65-R16s on my ML320. They need replacing and I'd like your opinions on what I can replace these with. I liked these, but they are $171 each. I also have someone looking for me at a salvage yard. We don't do "off-roading", but do have icy and snowy winters. I also haul a trailer, 4000-6000 lbs.

I've heard lots of good things about the Michelin Cross-Terrain. Here are some reviews on e-pinions:

I wouldn't buy tires from a salvage yard..
Since you tow a trailer.. since its already used there isn't much tread on it.. and when you tow heavy loads alot that increase tread wear on the tires.. just buy new if you can afford it... In my city I can get you a set of brand new tires for only $800 canadian dollars including taxes... $500 US

Own the cross terrains and have nothing but good things to say about them. Even though they cost more, they are a good value.
It doesn't have to be cheap to be of good value. |
