Mercedes Benz ’76 350SE (W116) Tire Review Highlights

A great tire for classic cars. My car takes an unusual size and my only other choices were a Michelin classic tire at almost £400, or budget tires for about £60. The Vredesteins in this size were about £150 (other, more common, sizes in this tire are cheaper) and are perfect in appearance and performance. The high profile means the feedback is somewhat vague, but that’s more a factor of the size/profile than the tire quality - you can’t expect more from a 1976 comfort-barge!
I can’t comment too much on the progressiveness, because I don’t corner the old girl that hard, but grip is excellent in all conditions, even pushed a bit.
Best of both worlds - grips like a modern tire, looks like a classic tire.
