We are having our first snow/ice/freezing rain of the season here in America's Heartland (Kansas) and I am planning to get snow tires. On my most recent prior Mercedes, the snow tires came with the car mounted on a second set of wheels (2 tires not four). Well, I sold that car to OK Don and I am without snow tires. So, while I was picking up my car at my indy (because of the %^#^ hose repair), I asked him if he had any snow tires. He told me they would not help on my car. He said that they would not work on a LWB 126 as well as they did on my 124. This sounds like malarkey to me. Has anyone tried out snow tires on a 126 (esp. LWB 126). Do they help? Am I destined to slip and slide all over the place?
