S-class W202 Mercedes

1993-2000 of release

Repair and car operation

The S-class Mercedes models, depending on the equipment, are equipped with tires and wheels of the various sizes. The size, along with width of a rim, defines also depth of a press fitting. Depth of a press fitting represents the size from the rim middle to a surface of a prileganiye of a niche of a wheel to a brake disk.

All disk wheels have the pressed ledge which at very sharp driving on turns prevents pressure of a rim upon the tubeless tire.

If tires and / or ободья which are not specified in the passport the car are established, it is necessary to bring them in the passport. For this purpose, as a rule, permission to their use from Mercedes firm is necessary.

All data on pressure of air are provided for cold tires. Increase of pressure resulting long driving in tires on 0,2 bar should not be pitted.

Pressure of air in the tire of a spare wheel corresponds to the maximum pressure at full loading.

As a result of continuous technical development by the probably admissible there can be other values of pressure of air in tires and other combinations the tire rim for older models. Therefore we recommend to request actual specifications in specialized repair shops.

Producers recommend to use tires only to depth of a profile of 1,6 mm, on all surface of a protector depth of a profile should be not less than 1,6 mm. However replacement of summer tires is for safety reasons recommended at depth of a profile of 2 mm and winter tires at depth of a profile of 4 mm.

Marking of disks

Example: 6 J x 15 Н2 ЕТ31:

6= width of a rim of a wheel in inches
J= alphabetic reference of height and contour of onboard filling of a rim
x = designation of an one-piece rim with the deep basis
15= diameter of a rim in inches
Н2 = an external and internal profile of a rim with a ledge shoulder
ЕТ31 = depth of a press fitting of 31 mm.

Marking of tires

Example:

If between data 14 and 89 there is a designation of N + to S, it indicates tires with a winter profile.

The alphabetic reference of speed costs after designation of the size of the tire. Symbols of designation of speed belong both to summer, and to winter tires.

Date of manufacturing of tires

Date of manufacturing is specified on the tire in a code of the manufacturer.

Example: DOT CUL2 UM8 of 064 TUBELESS

DOT = ministry of transport of the USA
CU = the reduced designation of the manufacturer of tires
12= size шиныUM8 = tire design
064= manufacturing date = 06th week 1994
= symbol of the current decade (1990-1999)
TUBELESS = the tubeless tire (TUBETYPE = the tire with the chamber).
