Preparing the vehicle
Your vehicle may be equipped with:
- TIREFIT kit
- a "Minispare" emergency spare wheel
- a collapsible spare wheel
- MOExtended tires (tires with run-flat
properties)
Vehicle preparation is not necessary on vehicles with MOExtended tires.
Vehicles equipped with MOExtended tires are not equipped with a TIREFIT kit at the factory. It is therefore recommended that you additionally equip your vehicle with a TIREFIT kit if you mount tires that do not feature run-flat properties, e.g. winter tires.
A TIREFIT kit can be obtained from an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.

Make sure that they are not endangered as they do so.
