Problem overview

Some Mercedes-Benz CLA250 owners report experiencing frequent tire replacements due to the vehicle's narrow sidewall design, with front tires sometimes needing replacement as early as 13,000 miles. While the factory-installed Continental Run flat tires come with a 65,000-mile warranty, many owners find they wear out sooner than anticipated, typically lasting only 17,000 to 20,000 miles. Additionally, owners note the importance of checking for signs of tire wear, such as low tread depth, punctured sidewalls, large cracks, or bubbles, which indicate the need for new tires. Maintaining the recommended tire pressure is also crucial for ensuring a safe and comfortable driving experience. For those looking to replace tires, having detailed data on tire and wheel sizes by model year and trim can assist in making an informed decision.
