Find Tyres for 2020-present Mercedes-Benz GLA (H247)
Common factory fitments and replacement guidance for the 2020-present Mercedes-Benz GLA.
About this generation
This generation of the GLA runs on 19-inch or larger wheels in some trims, which means short-sidewall tyres that handle precisely but are less forgiving on rough UK roads.
The current-generation Mercedes-Benz GLA (2020-present) is sold in the UK with a small set of factory tyre sizes per trim. Replacement tyres should match the size, load index and speed rating of what came on your specific car.
Chassis code: H247. Use the chassis code to confirm you have the right generation when ordering tyres.
Common factory tyre sizes
UK-market factory fitments for the 2020-present Mercedes-Benz GLA typically include:
Wet grip is the most relevant EU label rating for UK driving. On the GLA, prioritise wet grip A or B for shorter braking in rain.
Mercedes-Benz works with tyre makers to develop OEM-marked versions for the GLA, tuned for the car's suspension calibration. Star, MO, AO or J markings indicate manufacturer-approved tyres.

Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.
The GLA 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.
Is the Mercedes-Benz GLA still on sale in the UK?
As of the 2020-present window, the Mercedes-Benz GLA is currently on sale in the UK. Tyre fitments listed here reflect UK-market specifications.
Where should I check the original tyre size for my Mercedes-Benz GLA?
Look in three places: (1) the sidewall of the existing tyre, (2) the placard inside the driver's door frame, and (3) the vehicle handbook. The driver's door placard is the official OEM specification, and the sidewall confirms what's fitted now.
What do star/OEM markings mean on Mercedes-Benz GLA 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.
Are OEM tyres still fitted to new Mercedes-Benz GLA cars?
New UK Mercedes-Benz GLA cars leave the factory with original-equipment (OEM) tyres specified by Mercedes-Benz. When replacing, you can stay on the same OEM brand or move to an alternative provided the size, load index and speed rating match.
