̄ 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 pro-
vide best possible performance in con-
junction with the driving safety
systems on your vehicle such as ABS or
ESP
®
. Tires specially developed for
your vehicle and tested and approved
by Mercedes-Benz can be identified by
finding the following on the tire’s side-
wall:
ț MO = Mercedes-Benz Original
equipment tires
AMG vehicles:
Does not apply to all approved tires
on AMG vehicles. For information
on tested and approved tires for
AMG vehicles, contact an autho-
rized Mercedes-Benz Center.
Using tires other than those approved
by Mercedes-Benz may result in dam-
age that is not covered by the
Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.
!
Using tires other than those approved
by Mercedes-Benz can have detrimen-
tal effects, such as
ț poor handling characteristics
ț increased noise
ț increased fuel consumption
Moreover, tires and rims not approved
by Mercedes-Benz may, under load,
exhibit dimensional variations and dif-
ferent tire deformation characteristics
that could cause them to come into
contact with the vehicle body or axle
parts. Damage to the tires or the vehi-
cle may be the result.

Further information on tires and rims is
available at any authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center. A placard with
the recommended tire inflation
pressures is located on the driver’s
door B-pillar. Some vehicles may have
supplemental tire inflation pressure
information for driving at high speeds
(
୴ page 316) or for vehicle loads less
than the maximum loaded vehicle
condition (
୴ page 316). If such infor-
mation is provided, it can be found on
the placard located on the inside of the
fuel filler flap. The tire inflation pres-
sure should be checked regularly and
should only be adjusted on cold tires.
Follow tire manufacturer’s mainte-
nance recommendation included with
vehicle.
