| 2007 Mercedes G-Class review
"...Mercedes-Benz has refined its G-Class yet again. The interior has been injected with fresh appeal courtesy of a new, high-grade instrument cluster, an attractively styled steering wheel which is also new, as well as a modified centre console with redesigned switches plus a new-look control unit for the air conditioning. Outside, the latest generation of the G-Class can be identified by..."
This is from a small review on the 2007 Mercedes G-Class. You can find info about it's design and performance, features and other details, and also some photos with the car.

Duelers were OEM on my 2000 G500. I switched them out for the OEM Yokohamas from a 2002, and haven't looked back. Imnsho, the Yokos are superior to the Bridgestones. |

Especially the Revos. |

I don't remember which specific model of the Dueller was on the 2000 G500, but the Yokos have a higher load rating and, from what I can only subjectively tell, better sidewalls and tread pattern. |

Those 689 Duelers that i have for sale are from 2006 G320.
Owner ordered his car with 18" but came from factory in 16" - so i bought all set and want to keep the wheels.
Just those Duelers are'nt high enough and they just do not fit to our nature

The non-Revo Duelers are a fairly average tire. The Revos are pretty awesome and even in the "shallow tread depth" 18" P-rated version have more load capacity than the Geolanders... and a far, far superior tread pattern. The Geolanders are smoother and quieter on pavement though.
