Rims and Tires
Use only tires and rims which have been 
specifically developed for your vehicle and 
tested and approved by Mercedes-Benz. 
Other tires and rims 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 dimensional variations and dif-
ferent tire deformation characteristics 
under load 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 Center. A tire inflation 
pressure table is located on the fuel fill-
er cap of the vehicle. The tire pressure 
should be checked regularly and 
should only be adjusted on cold tires. 
Follow tire manufacturer’s mainte-
nance recommendation included with 
vehicle.
