Rotating wheels
Notes:
Rotation of wheels does not apply to model E 55 AMG
with summer tires.
Thoroughly clean the inner side of the wheels any time
you rotate the wheels or wash the vehicle underside.
The wheels can be rotated according to the degree of
tire wear while retaining the same direction of travel.
The use of retread tires is not recommended. Retread
tires may adversely affect the handling characteristics
and safety of the vehicle.
Rotating, however, should be carried out at as
recommended by the tire manufacturer, 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.
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.
Important!
Check and ensure proper tire inflation pressure after
rotating the wheels. For tire inflation pressure see
page 278.
Unidirectional tires must always be mounted with arrow
on tire sidewall pointing in direction of vehicle forward
movement.
