Tire Description

Original Equipment (O.E.) summer tires are an appropriate tire choice for sporty vehicles manufactured in the U.S., as well as those imported from Europe and Asia. Developed for use on new cars and light trucks, these tires provide a sporty blend of ride quality, noise comfort and handling, along with dry and wet traction. These tires are not intended to be driven in snow. While Original Equipment summer tires are often repurchased as direct replacements for pairs and sets of worn out Original Equipment tires, they can also be used on other vehicles in axle pairs or sets of four if they match the needed tire size, load range and speed rating specifications, as well as the anticipated driving conditions. While we attempt to provide a picture of as many of these tires as possible, the pictures used to represent these tires cannot be guaranteed to be an exact depiction of each tire's appearance because of the variety of subtle differences in tread designs and sidewall styling.

Customer Reviews

Picked up my 2010 E63 AMG in November and the first production of these cars were equipped with Conti Sport Contact 3's. After leaving the dealership it was very evident that these tires were not a good match for this vehicle. In addition the Conti's would flat spot overnight. For the first 5 to 10 minutes every morning the would shimmy and shake. After taking the vehicle into the dealer they agreed that the Conti's had issues. MBUSA offered a N/C swap out to the new Michelin PS3's which in later production (Q1 2010) are OEM in place of the Conti's. While I only have a few miles on the tires they are simply outstanding! The turn-in and driving dynamics of the car have been transformed into what a true AMG vehicle should drive like. Great work Michelin for taking the pilot series to yet a new level! If you have the means the PS3"s are awesome!
