Operation

Tires and wheels

Rotate tires before the characteristic tire
wear pattern becomes visible (shoulder
wear on front tires and tread center wear
on rear tires).

Thoroughly clean the mounting face of
wheels and brake disks, i.e. the inner side
of the wheels/tires, during each rotation.
Check for and ensure proper tire inflation
pressure.

For information on wheel change, see “Flat
tire” (

page 348).

Warning!

G

Have the tightening torque checked after

changing a wheel. Wheels could become

loose if not tightened with a torque of

97 lb-ft (130 Nm).

Only use genuine Mercedes-Benz wheel

bolts specified for your vehicle’s rims.
