Friends
My 30 year old 300te 4-Matic suffers from some quite pronounced wheel judder at low speeds (sound familiar, does it not?)
I am now coming to the conclusion the the current Pirelli P6's are not my best friend here. They are at best very hash/had on the road and accentuate every pebble to be boulder sized.
As we have eliminated almost every other candidate for the 'wheel judder' we are left with the tyre choice.
Can anybody suggest what tyres would be best on a 4-matic that is running the original 15" 15 slot alloys?
This is not a daily driver so maybe not so crucial. But comfort is King here and I do not like judder. As in the recent posts it is worst at very low speed. Best example is attempting to to get onto a tight petrol station forecourt.
Oh. My preference is not to have it looking like monster truck, or Massey Ferguson tractor.
