Question Which tires should I buy from Discount Tire?

I own a 2003 Mercedes Benz C230 Sedan and I am in need of tires. I just don't know which brand of tire is the best for the price from Discount Tire.
Tire Size 225/45/17

Please help me.

Thank you,
Noraida

Hi,
if you are looking for good quality tires Dunlop have an offer on at the mo i think. $50 off on a set of 4, is your car a 230 Kompressor? sports tyres like the Maxx TT are very good, i'm not sure what sort of milage you do or the roads you use though.
I always buy good quality tires, Dunlop, Goodyear etc. I would not buy anything with a strange sounding brand name like Wanli.


Edit: Just seen the ad on another site!
Hope this isn't against the rules here is the address:
http://dunloptires.com/cfmx/web/dunl...mpaign=RevItUp

I have no connection with any tire company btw.

Check out www.tirerack.com. They list a number of brand name tires for your car in the correct size. My 2002 C230 coupe came with Michelins at the time (still wearing them) but there are a number of high quality tires available. Do NOT buy cheap tires for the sake of the money saved. The loss of performance and handling can be significant. Michelin, Continental, Bridgestone and Dunlop are all names that appear on various MBs.

Michelin Pilot Sports, for sure. Stop on a dime, handle on rails. I've always run them on my Merc.
