HolyRoach Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 Greetings, I have installed 19-inch wheels on my e350, with the rear wheels being staggered. I am enquiring whether anybody has implemented this configuration on their car.May I enquire about the pressure in pounds per square inch (psi) at which you all are operating your equipment? The tire sizes for the front are 235/35/19, while for the rear are 265/30/19. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleverPixel Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 What information is shown on the label located on the fuel flap or the pillar of the driver's door? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HolyRoach Posted July 23 Author Share Posted July 23 The wheels are aftermarket, not original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleverPixel Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 The recommended tire pressures are mostly determined by the weight distribution on the axles, therefore variations in wheel design and tyre size do not significantly affect the recommendations provided by the manufacturer. Operate the machines at the suggested parameters and make necessary modifications to optimise both the comfort of the ride and the durability of the equipment.

HolyRoach Posted July 23 Author Share Posted July 23 What is the recommended tire pressure for them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MutanX Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 Regarding tire pressures, I just conducted my monthly tyre pressure check, which took place two weeks after a significant service performed by Mercedes. All four tires were 5 psi below the acceptable levels. One of the services offered is the inspection of tire pressures. Either all of them have had an identical decrease in weight over a period of two weeks, or Mercedes has wrongly adjusted their settings. 🤔 The likelihood of the former occurring is quite improbable. By the way, I verified them using two distinct devices. Furthermore, I saw in the service report that the status of the spare kit was marked as "OK". When did a spare wheel, which I really own, become classified as a kit? In past years, it has been seen that the spare tire exhibited no signs of wear and the tyre pressure was recorded. I have a suspicion that they did not make an effort to search this year. It is fortunate that I periodically inspect it. I am not reassured by the fact that the several other service tasks were completed thoroughly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HolyRoach Posted July 23 Author Share Posted July 23 What is the typical operating temperature for your device? It is quite probable that they have restored them to the suggested settings. They would not all be sitting at -5psi if they were losing air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleverPixel Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 They are also probably included in the owner's manual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MutanX Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 I maintain a tyre pressure of 36 psi for all four wheels, as indicated by the recommended value specified on the fuel tank cover of my vehicle. (However, the numbers provided are far lower than those for a vehicle that is completely loaded.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
