Why Doesn't Mercedes-Benz Have a Spare Tire
1 Answers
Mercedes-Benz does not have a spare tire because it uses run-flat tires. Here is some information about Mercedes-Benz tires: 1. Features of run-flat tires: After a tire blowout, the car can still travel up to approximately 80 kilometers at a maximum speed of 80km/h, which is sufficient to reach the nearest repair shop for tire replacement. Therefore, Mercedes-Benz vehicles do not need to be equipped with a spare tire. 2. Functionality: Run-flat tires not only allow continued driving after losing pressure but also ensure safety. After a blowout, run-flat tires do not immediately collapse because their sidewalls are particularly thick, providing strong support to prevent the vehicle from rolling over. Additionally, vehicles with run-flat tires do not have a spare tire, allowing continued driving after a blowout without the need for immediate tire replacement, offering convenience and increasing trunk space.
