When it comes time to replace your tyres, never compromise – especially for luxury brands like Mercedes-Benz, where peak performance and safety are expected at every turn. For the discerning drivers, opt for Mercedes-Benz Original Tyres that are designed to deliver not just enhanced grip, but an all-rounded performance that complement your prized possession.
To the naked eye, the tyres might appear identical to the generic models sold in the market but the changes are more than rubber deep. Specific improvements are made in certain areas that perfectly complements the car’s characteristics by enhancing the performance and safety.
How can you identify these tyres? Mercedes-Benz Original Tyres can be identified by the ‘MO’ marking on the sidewall, which designates them as ‘Mercedes Original’ tyres.
You might find yourself asking if it is truly necessary to use MO tyres over the generic models in the market? The answer is a resounding yes for many reasons.
Here, the engineers do not just throw on a set of generic tyres and call it a day. The tyres are precision engineered to suit the strenuous demands of a vehicle that seamlessly blends luxury and performance.
These tyres are developed in close collaboration with leading tyre manufacturers specifically for each Mercedes-Benz model and work optimally with the car’s various systems, especially safety. They’ve passed up to 40 stringent test criteria and benefited from over 1,000 hours of development to ensure your utmost safety.
Factors such as the weight, suspension, braking system and aerodynamics are taken into account in development of the tyre, right down to possessing unique rubber compounds, tread patterns and internal structures.
Mercedes-Benz cars are paragons of safety, and keeping the car firmly planted to the road is paramount in avoiding unfortunate outcomes. Mercedes-Benz Original Tyres are designed to work optimally with these safety systems when called upon, such as sudden braking, emergency avoidance manoeuvres or heavy rain that causes hydroplaning.
Apart from performance, Mercedes-Benz is synonymous with comfort and that comes with its own distinct set of requirements. Mercedes-Benz Original Tyres are put together to optimise the finer aspects of motoring. This includes ride comfort and reduced road noise.
Interestingly but not unexpected of a brand steeped in luxury, Mercedes-Benz even goes so far as to develop Mercedes Original Silent (MOS) tyres for flagship models like the S-Class. These tyres feature special foam inserts to further reduce road noise.
To keep moving, Mercedes Original Extended (MOE) tyres are designed with run-flat technology, giving you peace of mind on the road. Even in the event of a puncture, these tyres allow you to continue driving safely to your nearest service centre – no roadside delays, no compromises.
For those who crave adrenaline-fueled precision, Mercedes Original 1 (MO1) tyres are engineered exclusively for Mercedes-AMG models. Inspired by motorsport technology, they deliver superior grip, high-speed stability, and razor-sharp steering – built to meet the demands of high-performance driving.
Lastly, Mercedes-Benz Original Tyres are packaged with Road Hazard Warranty coverage that provides pure peace of mind for your motoring needs. The warranty protects you from various types of tyre damage on the road. This includes punctures, sidewall bulges from pothole hits, cuts and even general tyre damage.
The Road Hazard Warranty is complimentary with every MO tyre purchased from an official Mercedes-Benz authorised dealership. Under the programme, all the aforementioned damage will be covered up to 24 months or 24,000 km, whichever comes first. In the event of damage, claims will be based on several factors such as mileage and the age of the tyre.
With several leading tyre manufacturers collaborating with Mercedes-Benz for their Mercedes-Benz marked tyres, you’ll find them all participating in the Road Hazard Warranty programme and incudes Continental, Michelin, Pirelli, Bridgestone, Goodyear, and Hankook.
Remember to keep your Mercedes-Benz running factory-fresh by keeping it running on the right rubbers, that being Mercedes-Benz Original Tyres. You can purchase Mercedes-Benz Original Tyres from authorised Mercedes-Benz service dealers nationwide or find out more here. Terms and conditions apply.
