This is a current listing of factory approved 15" and 16" winter tires. Newly approved tires are highlighted in italic text.

We recommend that only factory approved winter tires be used on any Mercedes-Benz vehicle.

Note:
Some of the approved winter tires listed may not be available in the U.S. or Canada.















For proper tire model, refer to the appropriate Model Year Introduction Manual.

Note:
^ In case of a wheel change (e.g., light alloy for steel rims, be certain that the proper spare lug bolts are visibly kept with the spare wheel, to ensure proper wheel and bolt combination.

Lugbolts for steel and light alloy rims are not interchangeable!

^ Before mounting wheels, always clean the contact surface of the rims and axles of any dirt and corrosion.

^ When replacing tires, ensure that only tires with the tire/rim match point are used. Match points are designed to keep tire/wheel out-of-roundness within specified tolerances.
