I followed the link and the prices look great - for my E Class the winter wheels only come with Continental TS850 on 17" MB alloys - any idea if the TS860's are a massive improvement over the TS850P's ? Winter tyres for my standard fitment are restricted to only Hankook and Pirelli, neither of which come out very good versus the Continental TS860 - no idea against the TS850P.MO graded winter tyres are not really very good. They tend to be fairly old designs. You are better going away from MO. Continental TS860 are very good. I've used them for the last couple of years now. Current winter tyre review here:

Merc technical department advised me to run 225/50/17 all round on 7x17 wheels. I use these:
Mercedes-Benz 17 inch rims set of | C-Class W205 | 5-spoke wheel | vanadium silver
You will need a set of TPMS valves too. I got them from my local dealer.
