Damaged tyres can cause tyre pressure loss.
As a result, you could lose control of your vehicle.
Insufficient tyre tread will result in reduced tyre grip. The tyre tread is no longer able to dissipate water.
This means that in heavy rain or slush the risk of aquaplaning is increased, in particular where speed is not adapted to suit the conditions.
If the tyre pressure is too high or too low, tyres may exhibit different levels of wear at different locations on the tyre tread.
Summer tyres: 3 mm
M+S tyres: 4 mm
Check the tyre pressure More.
Visually inspect wheels and tyres for damage.
Check the valve caps.
The valves must be protected against moisture and dirt by the valve caps approved especially for your vehicle by Mercedes-Benz.
Visual check of the tyre tread depth and the tyre contact surface across the entire width.
The minimum tread depth for summer tyres is 3 mm and for winter tyres 4 mm.
