Are Nankang tyres as fitted to my Mercedes-Benz E220 equivalent to the Michelins usually fitted?

I am looking to buy an E220 Mercedes-Benz saloon and the garage has put four new tyres on. They are NANKANG ULTRA SPORT NS-11 225/55 R16 95V. The garage assure me that these tyres meet the specification of the Michelins fitted by Mercedes-Benz. My search on Google does not support this. I would be pleased if you would let me have your view on these tyres.
