What Do I Do When the Tire Pressure Light Comes On? 

If your tire pressure light comes on and stays on, that means that one or more of your tires isn't properly inflated. You need to pull over as soon as you can to check the pressure on your tires and refill them with air if necessary.  

Why Choose Your Tire Center? 

Our Mercedes-Benz tire shop should be your first choice for a few reasons. We offer a wide variety of tires from many different brands at competitive prices. Our factory-trained technicians will install the tires you pick out for you. Simply put, we make it easy to quickly get the new tires you need for your luxury car. 

When Do I Need to Replace my Tires? 

Your tires need to be replaced once the tread depth on one or more of them is too shallow. The best way to test this requires a penny. Put the penny into the tire tread upside-down. If you can see Abe's whole head, that tread is too shallow to offer the traction that you need.  

What is the Correct Tire Pressure? 

The correct tire pressure for your vehicle is written on the inside of your driver's side door. If you can't find it there, check your owner's manual. Inflating your tires to the right pressure helps your vehicle deliver a better driving experience and keeps you safer on the road. Properly inflated tires are also better protected from excess and uneven wear and tear.  

Why Are Tire Rotations Important? 

A tire rotation removes all four tires from your vehicle and installs them back on in different positions. This can help them wear down at more even rates, which extends the lifespan of all four tires. Replacing tires is costly, but the skilled mechanics at our Mercedes-Benz service center can help you put off that expense for as long as possible.
