Mercedes-Benz recommends winter tires
Tire speed rating
An electronic speed limiter prevents your
vehicle from exceeding a speed of:
(୴ page 328) with a minimum tread depth
of approximately
1
/6 in (4 mm) on all four
Regardless of the tire speed rating, local
speed limits should be obeyed. Use pru-
dent driving speeds appropriate to prevail-
ing conditions.

wheels for the winter season to make sure
normal balanced handling characteristics.
On packed snow, they can reduce your
stopping distance compared to summer
tires. Stopping distance, however, is still
considerably greater than when the road is
not covered with snow or ice. Exercise
appropriate caution.

Warning!

Even when permitted by law, never operate
a vehicle at speeds greater than the maxi-
mum speed rating of the tires.
The factory equipped tires on your vehicle
may have a tire speed rating above the
maximum speed permitted by the elec-
tronic speed limiter.
!
Avoid spinning of a drive wheel. This may
cause serious damage to the drivetrain which is
not covered by the Mercedes-Benz Limited War-
ranty.
Exceeding the maximum speed for which
tires are rated can lead to sudden tire fail-
ure, causing loss of vehicle control and pos-
sibly resulting in an accident and/or
personal injury and possible death, for you
and for others.
Make sure your tires have the required tire
speed rating as specified for your vehicle in
the “Technical data” section (୴ page 438),
for example when purchasing new tires.
