At Tyres.co.uk, you have the options of the Pirelli Scorpion (109W XL) or the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 SUV (109Y XL) for the Mercedes R-Class R 280 CDI, R 320 CDI 4MATIC and R 350 models with 255/55 R18 size and 18-inch wheels. Ensure you check your registration, load index, speed rating and wheel option before purchasing.
For the Mercedes R-Class, tyre specifications can be found on the inside of the fuel-filler flap. Tyre placards indicate specifications for wheels and tyres as well as recommended pressures. You should check if the existing tyres are of full size and match the label in the above context. Be mindful that other wheel options may affect required fitments.
Each of the four Mercedes R-Class tyres does not need to be changed, but replacement wheel fitments must be within the approved axle limits, and all tyres on an axle must be of the same type and brand. Rolling circumference must also be closely matched, especially for Mercedes R-Class 4MATIC models. If only two tyres are being changed, the UKs safety recommendations state that they should be put on the rear axle.
