    I replaced 2 tires every year either front or back so it’s a little frustrating with limited options for this model Mercedes

            Pretty heavy and sticky so expect MPG to drop a noticeable amount. Holds curves and braking very well, plus doesn't spin much on my 265HP FWD sedan on acceleration. Arguably, overkill for an A to B driver, but I do like not having to "drive around" the tires... I can just do what i want and they're ready to do whatever i ask. I used to track my car, and I don't think these would really compete with true 200TW but these are great for regular roads
