equal quality. Only use tires, wheels and acces-
sory parts that have been specifically approved
for your vehicle model.
Mercedes-Benz GenuineParts are subject to strict
quality inspections. Each part has been specially

uineParts are available for Mercedes-Benz mod-

vide for quick and reliable parts service.
