Tire Recommendations for my Mercedes.....

Well... the tires on our 420SEL finally need to be replaced. I've milked them long enough to have some belt showing on the shoulder.... aranoid: I'll be doing something later this week I think.
I have Michelin MXV4's on now but don't really want to spend that kind of money if I don't have to.... I think we're not going to have that car for too much longer so...

I'm looking for any feedback on decent performance all season tires (not the TOP of the line stuff, but good decent regular 'sporty' tires hopefully). I've had MXV4's installed for so long (three sets on two different Mercedes') that I have not keeping up on what other tires may be out there that are still good but not as much $$$. Dunlop (4000 or 5000) or Conti's or ???

I can use 205 or 215/65R15 (although the 205's are way more available in different flavors)

Any feedback on various tires would be appreciated.
