i had these tires on my w203 and in the dry they were very good, in the rain they are a little sketchy. but otherwise they grip good and perform good. they are a little noisy in higher speeds but that hasnt bothered me. i drove them in the snow and they are terrible. but you dont buy these tires for the snow.

Fitment comes from each tire's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

I had putting on my C230k , fulda exelero carat,the pirelli p zero rosso michelin pilot sport , and now I have the sava intensa uhp2 tires . I have 225/45/17 front and back wheels are 245/40/17 this is the second!!! time to put these tires, On wet grip the braking is very good and dry grip is almost excellent. Has a very low noise level and is very comfortable . I am impressed , low cost and of course have very good grip so i am satisfied with these tires . I belive is the best choice.
I replaced the pirelli p zero rosso on my C230k and I have used these Sava tires for 3500km , is the first time to put these tires On wet grip the braking is very good and dry grip is almost excellent. Has a very low noise level and is very comfortable . I am impressed , low cost and of course have very good grip so i am satisfied with these tires . I belive is the best choice.
put these tires on the front of my Mercedes clk 230 I drive like a lunatic at times didn't notice any difference to the continental sport contact 2 they replaced for grip ,really impressed with the tire wear had them on for 3 years before needing replacing ruffly 18,000 miles had some of the Dunlop sp sport continental sport contact 2 Pirelli p6000 in the past they all wear out a lot quicker good nudget tire don't listen to the tire snobs
I think this is not a winter tire, I believe this is a summer tire. I feel very confident driving the car with DW. Very grippy.
Have these on my car..
A pretty cheap tire and OK for the money but nothing to shout about. Ride noise is loud and doesn't suit my Mercedes so I will be changing to a more up market tire next time around.
Grip is decent in the dry but hit and miss in damp conditions.
