Recommended Mercedes-Benz Tire Pressure

2022 Mercedes-Benz CLS Coupe Side Exterior Parked

Safety-conscious drivers from Wilsonville to Vancouver and beyond know the importance of maintaining the correct Mercedes-Benz tire pressure. The automaker recommends specific psi ranges for the tires on each model. If you want to extend the life and performance of your tires, correct pressure is key. Below, our service department breaks down the suggested tire pressure for Mercedes-Benz vehicles.

What is the Recommended Mercedes-Benz Tire Pressure?

Tire pressure recommendations can vary between models, model years, and trims, so you will first want to consult either your owner’s manual or the sticker inside your driver’s side door for your vehicle’s specific pressure requirements. In general, Mercedes-Benz vehicles have a front tire pressure that ranges from 38 to 40 psi, while rear tire pressure typically falls between 44 and 47 psi.

Why Maintain Adequate Tire Pressure?

Routinely checking your tire pressure and adding or letting out air as needed offers a variety of benefits for your driving experience in Beaverton or wherever the road takes you. Here are just a few of them:

  • Improved traction and control
  • Increased fuel economy
  • Longer tire lifespan
  • Minimize the risk of tire blowouts
  • More even tire wear

How Do You Check Tire Pressure?

Check your tire pressure by following these three simple steps:

  1. Remove the valve cap on a tire, and place a tire pressure gauge over the valve stem until any hissing stops.
  2. Wait a couple of seconds for the reading to display. On a digital gauge, the psi will display on a screen. With a non-digital gauge, a bar will extend from the bottom of the gauge with the current psi.
  3. Repeat these steps on the remaining tires.
