The actualvalues for tires are vehicle-spe-
cific and may deviate from the values in the
illustration.
Treadwear
The treadweargradeisacomparativerating
based on the wearrate of the tire whentested
undercontrolled conditions on aspecified U.S.
government course. For example, atire graded
150 would wearone and one-half times as well
on the government test track as atire graded
100.
The relative performance of tires depends upon
the actualconditions of their use,however, and
may depart significantly from the norm dueto
variations in driving habits, service practices
and differences in road characteristics and cli-
mate.
Traction
G
WARNING
The tractiongradeassignedtothis tire is
based on straight-ahead braking traction
tests, and doesnot include acceleration, cor-
nering, hydroplaning,orpeaktractionchar-
acteristics.
!
Avoid wheelspin. Thiscan leadtodamage to
the drivetrain.
The tractiongrades –from highest to lowest
are AA, A, Band C. Thosegrades represent the
tire's ability to stop on wet pavement as meas-
uredundercontrolled conditions on specified
government test surfaces of asphaltand con-
crete. Atire marked Cmay have poortraction
performance.
The safe speedonawet, snow coveredoricy
road is always lower than on dry road surfaces.
You should pay specialattentiontoroadcondi-
tions whentemperatures are around freezing
point.
Mercedes-Benz recommends aminimum tread
depth of ã in (4 mm)onall four winter tires.
Observe the legally required minimum tire tread
depth (
Y page261). Winter tires can reduce the
braking distance on snow-covered surfaces in
comparisonwithsummer tires. The braking dis-
tance is stillmuch furtherthan on surfaces that
are not icy or coveredwithsnow. Take appro-
priate care whendriving.
Temperature
G
WARNING
The temperature gradefor this tire is estab-
lished for atire that is properly inflated and
not overloaded. Excessivespeed, underinfla-
tion, or excessive loading,eitherseparately or
in combination, can cause excessive heat
build-up and possibletire failure.
The temperature grades are A(the highest),B,
and C, representing the tire's resistance to the
generation of heatand its ability to dissipate
heatwhentested undercontrolled conditions
on aspecified indoor laboratory test wheel. Sus-
tainedhightemperature can cause the material
of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire life, and
excessive temperature can leadtosudden tire
failure. The gradeCcorresponds to alevelof
performance which allpassengercar tires must
meet underthe Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standard No. 109. Grades Band Arepresent
higher levels of performance on the laboratory
test wheel than the minimum required by law.
