I'm not sure how fast you want to go, but I have Goodyear Regatta 2 tires on my 240D (and our Buick), and I can attest to the fact that they don't blow out at 90+ mph (in Oklahoma, heading down to an OkieQ). Plus, they go really good on snow and glare ice.
Unfortunately, I think they have been replaced by something else -- same tire, new name, higher costs. Integra, if memory serves me. The 300E has top of the line Goodyear Assurance. Big bucks (approaching $100 a tire) but it turns a 2 wheel drive into a 4 wheel drive on snow/ice. And this is my sucky-weather driver.
