I spent just a couple dollars less than $1,000 on a set of Dunlop winter tires for my SL550. Fortunately, I got a bunch of Black Friday rebates. I suspect that I'll be spending more than that when the summer tires wear out.

Permanent AWD.
Rotation.
Yup. Rotation. I can't afford to not rotate. I've got warranty on at least two sets of tires that I can think of, when they have worn out prematurely. If I hadn't rotated faithfully, I never would have got a dime from the manufacturers.
