Vehicle preparation is not necessary on

vehicles with the MOExtended run-flat

flat system are not equipped with the

recommended that you additionally equip
your vehicle with the TIREFIT kit if you
mount tires that do not feature run-flat
properties, e.g. winter tires. You can obtain
a TIREFIT kit from an authorized Mercedes-
Benz Center, for example.
