Apologies for probably yet another winter tyre post but struggling to find any suitable tyres for my 2012 CLS Shooting Brake. I've got the AMG Sport, so 19" wheels. Anyone got one with winters fitted, what did you go for and where did you get them?

I've found Pirelli sottozero 3 seem to be made in the correct size front & rear but struggling to find anywhere that has them in. Can find the fronts but not the rears.

Cheers
Graham

Oponeo and Pneus Online are worth a try.

You might find it cheaper (and better in really bad conditions) to get a set of 17" alloys with winter tyres to match. This makes life a lot easier come swap around time. mytyres.co.uk have packages at about £850 for leading brand tyres. This would keep your 19" wheels out of the salt and away from the curb.

I have had great experiences with Continental winter tyres on a variety of cars (but nothing especially fast); less so with the Dunlop WinterSport M3s I have on my 129.
