360 Wheels and tires
Only correct tire pressure when the tires are
cold. Conditions for cold tires:
The vehicle has been parked with the tires
R
out of direct sunlight for at least three hours.
The vehicle has traveled less than 1 mile
R
(1.6 km).
A rise in the tire temperature of 18°F (10°C)
increases the tire pressure by approx. 10 kPa
(0.1 bar/1.5 psi). Take this into account when
checking the tire pressure of warm tires.
The tire pressure recommended for increased
load/speed in the tire pressure table can affect
the ride comfort.
& WARNING Risk of accident due to
unsuitable accessories on tire valves
If you mount unsuitable accessories onto tire
valves, the tire valves may be overloaded and
malfunction, which can cause tire pressure
loss.
Only screw standard valve caps or valve
#
caps specifically approved by
Mercedes-Benz for your vehicle onto
the tire valve.
Notes on trailer operation
Always inflate the rear axle tires to the recom‐
mended tire pressure on the tire pressure table
for increased load.
Notes on driving on sand
When driving on sand, you can lower the tire
pressure (
page 128).

The data shown in the images is example
data.
The tire pressure table shows the recommended
tire pressure for all tires approved for this vehi‐
cle. The recommended tire pressures apply for
cold tires under various operating conditions, i.e.
loading and/or speed of the vehicle.
If one or more tire sizes precede a tire pressure,
the tire pressure information following is only
valid for those tire sizes.
The load conditions "partially laden" and "fully
laden" are defined in the table for different num‐
bers of passengers and amounts of luggage. The
actual number of seats may differ from this.
Some tire pressure tables only show the rim
diameter instead of the complete tire size, e.g.
