New tyres required (takes a deep breath!)

[drmw]

OK - It's not an MB (for the moment) but I do need some rears.

They are not run flat - 295/30 ZR20 (101y)

With 600bhp & 700Nm it needs good ones - but what to choose?

Any answers will be gratefully received (and good sources even more!)

Absolutely and £70 a tyre cheaper

With that Power I would definitely want Quality. I would go Michelin.

I have never considered - they look fine, "scores" are good - I may well consider them!

People put them on E63's

I recently put them on the r230 as I couldn't get my usual choice Rainsport 3 in the right size. Previously I had Goodyear Assymetric 2 on the rear and was never happy with them in wet/cold weather. The Falkens are very good so far. Much better wet/cold grip than the Goodyears and a lot quieter too. No views yet on longevity but given the grip so far I'm not too concerned if they wear a little quicker.

If I’d kept the 63 Falkens would have been going on....

Same here but I do find they wear quickly.

Also very noisy.

 

[Dean Fletcher]

Also very noisy.

Agreed.

 

[sonic]

I have used Falken's in the past no problems, but not with that power.

 

[McDonald]

Also very noisy.

I've heard this a lot but I don't find them noisy at all. And super grippy. I like them so much that I've fitted them to all three of our cars this year. I'll report on wear when they're old enough.
