Wheel and tire combinations

General notes

!

For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz

recommends that you only use tires and

wheels which have been approved by

Mercedes-Benz specifically for your

vehicle.
These tires have been specially adapted for

use with the control systems, such as ABS

or ESP

®

, and are marked as follows:

R

MO = Mercedes-Benz Original

R

MOE = Mercedes-Benz Original Extended

(tires featuring run-flat characteristics)

R

MO1 = Mercedes-Benz Original (only

certain AMG tires)

Mercedes-Benz Original Extended tires

may only be used on wheels that have been

specifically approved by Mercedes-Benz.
Only use tires, wheels or accessories

tested and approved by Mercedes-Benz.

Certain characteristics, e.g. handling,

vehicle noise emissions or fuel

consumption, may otherwise be adversely

affected. In addition, when driving with a

load, tire dimension variations could cause

the tires to come into contact with the

bodywork and axle components. This could

result in damage to the tires or the vehicle.
Mercedes-Benz accepts no liability for

damage resulting from the use of tires,

wheels or accessories other than those

tested and approved.

Information on tires, wheels and approved

combinations can be obtained from any

qualified specialist workshop.

may be obtained from a qualified specialist

workshop.
