Technical data

Rims and tires

!

Only use tires which have been tested and 

approved for your vehicle by Mercedes-Benz. 
Tires approved by Mercedes-Benz are developed 
to provide best possible performance in conjunc-
tion with the driving safety systems on your vehi-
cle such as ABS or ESP

®

. Tires specially 

developed for your vehicle and tested and ap-
proved by Mercedes-Benz can be identified by 
finding the following on the tire’s sidewall:

MO = Mercedes-Benz Original equipment 
tires

AMG vehicles:
Does not apply to all approved tires on AMG 
vehicles. For information on tested and ap-
proved tires for AMG vehicles, contact an au-
thorized Mercedes-Benz Center.

MO

E

 = Mercedes-Benz Original 

Extended 

(tires with limited run-flat characteristics) 
original equipment tires

Using tires other than those approved by 
Mercedes-Benz may result in damage that is 
not covered by the Mercedes-Benz Limited 
Warranty.

For information on driving with 

MO

Extended 

tires, see “

MO

Extended system*” (

page 348).

!

Using tires other than those approved by 

Mercedes-Benz can have detrimental effects, 
such as

poor handling characteristics

increased noise

increased fuel consumption

Moreover, tires and rims not approved by 
Mercedes-Benz may, under load, exhibit dimen-
sional variations and different tire deformation 
characteristics that could cause them to come 
into contact with the vehicle body or axle parts. 
Damage to the tires or the vehicle may be the 
result.

i

Further information on tires and rims is 

available at any authorized Mercedes-Benz Cen-
ter. A placard with the recommended tire infla-
tion pressures is located on the driver’s door 
B-pillar. Some vehicles may have supplemental 
tire inflation pressure information for driving at 
high speeds (

page 340) or for vehicle loads 

less than the maximum loaded vehicle condition 
(

page 339).

If such information is provided, it can be found 
on the placard located on the inside of the fuel 
filler flap. The tire inflation pressure should be 
checked regularly and should only be adjusted 
on cold tires. Follow tire manufacturer’s mainte-
nance recommendation included with vehicle.

i

The following pages also list the approved 

wheel rim and tire sizes for equipping your vehi-
cles with winter tires. Winter tires are not avail-
able as standard or optional factory equipment, 
but can be purchased from an authorized 
Mercedes-Benz Center.

Depending on vehicle model and the standard or 
optional factory-equipped wheel rim/tire config-
uration on your vehicle (Appearance Package, 
Sport Package etc.), equipping your vehicle with 
winter tires approved for your vehicle model may 
also require the purchase of two or four wheel 
rims of the recommended size for use with these 
winter tires. See an authorized Mercedes-Benz 
Center for more information.
