Original tire sizes for the Mercedes-Benz ML-Class, model years 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011. Trim levels and wheel packages change the size within the same year, so confirm on the door-jamb sticker before ordering.
Check before you order. The surest answer is the tires on the car right now: the size is molded into the sidewall. The placard inside the driver's door tells you what the factory fitted. Our guide on reading a tire size shows exactly where to look.

What Mercedes-Benz approves
MO is the Mercedes approval, MOE is the run-flat version and MO1 is reserved for AMG models.
Mercedes tunes the tire to the car's suspension and electronic aids, so an MO tire on a Mercedes usually rides closer to how the car left the factory. MOE tires have a reinforced sidewall and only belong on a car built for them.
Brands that carry the approval
Written on the sidewall as: Continental ProContact (MO), Michelin Pilot Sport 4 (MO1).
The drawing carries the sizes we list for this car, so you know what you are looking for. The placard on the car is still the final word, and it is the only place that gives the cold pressures: the number molded into the sidewall is the maximum the tire can hold, not what your car wants.
