Hi Jon, Thanks for your reply. The reason for the question is that I currently put three rear sets on the cls every year and if the xf s was the same it woculd be beyond economic for me to run as 20"tyres are almost double the price of the 18" ones I have now.

Hi all, I am currently considering the purchase of an XF S and as I do over 20,000 miles a year tyres are a big issue. I currently have a Mercedes cls 320 CDi and put a set of rear tyres on every 6-8000 miles - that's usually three sets a year and one set of fronts. With the S having 20 inch wheels the cost could mount up considerably looking at the cost of premium tyres. I used to fit Continentals on the merc but decided to try some cheaper and have ended up with Evergreen tyres. I have not noticed any difference in noise or grip in either wet or dry conditions and they last the same amount of miles saving me around £45 per corner. Can anyone tell me if the xf s uses rear tyres at the same rate or is it better than the merc - most of my miles are motorway use. has anyone used Evergreen or Landsail on the xf s? many thanks
