Rotating wheels
On vehicles with the same wheel size all
around, wheels can be rotated every 3000
to 6000 miles (5 000 to 10 000 km), or
sooner if necessary, according to the de-
gree of tire wear. The same direction of tire
rotation must be retained.
Rotate the wheels before the characteris-
tic tire wear pattern becomes visible
(shoulder wear on front wheels and tread
center wear on rear wheels).Thoroughly clean the inner side of the
wheels after each rotation. Check and en-
sure proper tire inflation pressure, activat-
ing the tire inflation pressure monitor if
necessary. Warning!
G
Rotate front and rear wheels only if they are
of the same size.
Warning!
G
Have the tightening torque checked after
changing a wheel. Wheels could become
loose if not tightened with a torque of
96 ft.lb. (130 Nm).
Only use genuine Mercedes-Benz wheel
bolts specified for your vehicle's rims.
