On my 300SD with the 14" bundt wheels, I am running a set of Michelin
Harmony tires.
They aren't performance wheels by any stretch of the imagination, but
they make for wonderful touring comfortable tires.
You won't use their mud/snow rating, but they work well in wet weather,
and highway driving is as smooth as I've experienced on any vehicle.
(other than a niggling bump that I've yet to track down in the
suspension, but not related to the tires!)
Due to their not being sport or performance tires, and in a 14" size,
they weren't all that expensive, but they ended up being a little
difficult to find in this area. I finally tracked them down at a Big O
tire store, but not at Discount Tires, where I would have preferred to go.
Best of luck!
