Tire speed rating
Snow chains
ML 320 and ML 430:
Use only snow chains that are tested and recommended
by Mercedes-Benz. Your authorized Mercedes-Benz
Light Truck Center will be glad to advise you on this
subject.
Your vehicle is factory equipped with “H”-rated tires,
which have a speed rating of 130 mph (210 km/ h).
An electronic speed limiter prevents your vehicle from
exceeding the tire speed rating.
Snow chains should be used on all four wheels. With
only two chains available, they should be mounted on
the rear wheels. Follow the manufacturer’s mounting
instructions.
ML 55 AMG:
Your vehicle is factory equipped with “W”-rated tires,
which have a speed rating of 168 mph (270 km/h).
Snow chains should only be driven on snow covered
roads at speeds not to exceed 30 mph (50 km/h).
Remove chains as soon as possible when driving on
roads without snow.
Despite the tire rating, local speed limits should be
obeyed. Use prudent driving speeds appropriate to
prevailing conditions.
When driving with snow chains, press the ESP control
switch to OFF, refer to page 207.
Warning!
Even when permitted by law, never operate a
vehicle at speeds greater than the maximum speed
rating of the tires.
Model ML 55 AMG
Use of snow chains is not permissible with tire size
285/
50 R 18.
Exceeding the maximum speed for which tires are
rated can lead to sudden tire failure causing loss of
vehicle control and resulting in personal injury
and possible death.
