Mercedes-Benz tyre tips
- Look for MO, MO1 or MOE on the sidewall: MO tyres are tuned for Mercedes, and MOE means a run-flat (extended mobility) version.
- AMG models usually run staggered setups, wider at the rear, so tyres cannot be rotated front to back.
- G-Class owners who drive in sand often switch to an all-terrain tyre; keep the original diameter to avoid drivetrain warnings.
- S-Class and E-Class cars fitted with run-flats from the factory have no spare wheel, so a puncture means a replacement tyre, not a roadside swap.
Common factory tyres on Mercedes-Benz: Michelin, Pirelli, Continental, Bridgestone, Goodyear.

When to replace the tyres
Rear tyres on powerful rear-wheel-drive coupes often last only 15,000–25,000 km; fronts last longer, 25,000–35,000 km. Soft UHP compounds also age quickly in heat, so replace at four to five years even with tread remaining.
Coupes typically need a load index of 88–101 with XL construction on many fitments, and a speed rating of W (270 km/h) or Y (300 km/h). Front and rear sizes often differ, each with its own load and speed requirement. Some Porsche, BMW and Mercedes-AMG models specify maker-approved tyres marked N0, *, or MO.
