Conti 4X4
I have the Continential Contact 4X4. These tires give a good smooth ride and great all weather handling. I did upgrade to the MB 17 inch wheels from the ML430 and love the set-up[8D]

RE: Tire Recommendation?
You can get the AMGs pretty cheap (well, compared to my rims!) at www.tirerack.com, but be warned that finding long treadlife tires for them will be tough.

look at tire reviews on m-class outpost
Go to
http://www.keysolutions.com/M-Class and click on Tire Logs. When you get yours, enter it in there. The tire reviews are specific to the M-Class....

I'd sure like to ditch the 16" minivan wheel/tire set and go to 17's or even 18's now that I have a 4x4 pickup to trash (camping, towing, etc)
It's a mini-van tire, not a mini-van wheel. Most of the quiet, long lasting tires you are looking for are all season minivan tires... not good for anything other than long life. Most 18" tires are summer sport tires.
Here's the OEM 16" wheel with an absolutely amazing tire combo: BFG A/T. No confusion with minivans. :)

Before you condemn him for making the little kid drive, you have to understand exactly how drunk JPinTO was... [:)]
