Rotating Wheels

Tire rotation is permissible only, if all
four wheel rims are of the same size.
The wheels can be rotated according to
the degree of tire wear while retaining
the same direction of travel.
Thoroughly clean the inner side of
the wheels any time you rotate the
wheels or wash the vehicle underside.
For rim and tire specifications, refer to
"Technical Data".
Warning!
The use of retread tires is not
recommended. Retread tires may

Worn, old tires can cause accidents.
If the tire tread is badly worn, or if
the tires have sustained damage,
replace them.
Rotating, however, should be carried
out at the scheduled maintenance
intervals, before the characteristic tire
wear pattern (shoulder wear on front
wheels and tread center wear on rear
wheels) becomes visible, as otherwise
the driving properties deteriorate.
characteristics and safety of the vehicle.
Dented or bent rims can cause tire
pressure loss and damage to the tire
beads. For this reason, check rims for
damage at regular intervals. The rim
flanges must be checked for wear
before a tire is mounted. Remove
burrs, if any.
When replacing rims, use only
genuine Mercedes-Benz wheel bolts
(identified by Mercedes star)
specified for the particular rim type.
Failure to do so can result in the
bolts loosening and possibly an
accident

Unidirectional snow tires must always
be mounted with arrow on tire sidewall
