Customer Reviews
This is the OEM tire for my wife’s Mercedes.This is the second set I got, not because they were worn, but we’re over 5 years old. I’m a retired tire store manager (not from Discount Tire) and also chose to install Continental tires on my SUV and 4WD truck. These are quality tires, and I recommend them highly!
One tire losses air very, very slowly, requires air three times in 12 months.
After 2 sets of this tire they continue to deliver a great product. Perfect fit for my vehicle . Looking to get 35K from them .
