Find Tyres for 2018-present Mercedes-Benz G-Class (W463A)

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.

• Are all-season tyres suitable for the Mercedes-Benz G-Class?

  All-season tyres carrying the 3PMSF snowflake symbol are a sensible choice for UK Mercedes-Benz G-Class drivers who don't want to swap between summer and winter sets. Confirm the size and load rating match your OEM spec.

• The G-Class uses 19" or larger wheels — what should I know?

  Larger wheels mean lower-profile tyres with shorter sidewalls — that means firmer ride, more pothole sensitivity and shorter tyre life on UK roads. Premium tyres usually repay the extra cost on cars with 19"+ wheels.

• Can I downsize from larger wheels on my Mercedes-Benz G-Class?

  Some trims of the G-Class can be downsized to a smaller OEM-approved wheel, which often gives better ride and lower tyre cost. Mercedes-Benz usually publishes approved alternative sizes — check the handbook before changing wheel size.

• Did the 2018-present Mercedes-Benz G-Class come with run-flat tyres?

  Many Mercedes-Benz models in this era were supplied with run-flat tyres from the factory. If your car has tyre pressure monitoring and no spare wheel, replacement tyres should typically also be run-flat. Verify on the existing sidewall — look for "RFT", "ROF", "ZP" or similar markings.

• What do star/OEM markings mean on Mercedes-Benz G-Class tyres?

  Mercedes-Benz approves specific tyres for many of its models, marked with a star (BMW), MO (Mercedes), AO (Audi), J (Jaguar) or similar. OEM-marked tyres are tuned for that car's suspension and don't always come from the major brand-name fitter as a stock item — they may need to be ordered.
