maintain the intended rotation (spinning)
direction of the tire (୴ page 295).
Tread

contact with the road.
Treadwear indicators
In some cases, such as when your vehicle
is equipped with mixed-size tires (different
tire dimension front vs. rear), tire rotation
is not possible.
Narrow bands, sometimes called
“wear bars” that show across the tread of
1
a tire when only /16 in (1.6 mm) of tread
remains.

Automotive readers have rated 2008 Mercedes-Benz CLS550 CLS63 AMG W219 Owners Manual 5.0 out of 5.0 based on 2 product reviews. This is exactly what I've been looking for and need. Great info in perfect detail and limited pics help as well.
Great having the manual saved on my tablet versus having to get the hard copy from within the vehicle. It's very thorough and complete, much appreciated
