Common factory fitments and replacement guidance for the 2019-present Mercedes-Benz GLB.
About this generation
The current-generation Mercedes-Benz GLB (2019-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.
This generation of the GLB 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.
Chassis code: X247. Use the chassis code to confirm you have the right generation when ordering tyres.
Common factory tyre sizes
UK-market factory fitments for the 2019-present Mercedes-Benz GLB typically include:
Mercedes-Benz works with tyre makers to develop OEM-marked versions for the GLB, tuned for the car's suspension calibration. Star, MO, AO or J markings indicate manufacturer-approved tyres.
Original-equipment sizes shown here are typical UK fitments. Sport packs, optional alloy upgrades and dealer accessories can change the size — always confirm before fitting.

Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.
What should Mercedes-Benz GLB drivers know about UK potholes?
UK road conditions are tough on tyres. Check sidewall bulges, cuts and tread depth regularly — especially on the inside edge, which often wears unevenly. A 20p coin gives a quick legal-tread check.
What's different about the 2019-present GLB compared with other generations?
This is the 2019-present generation of the Mercedes-Benz GLB. Earlier and later generations use different platforms, wheel sizes and tyre fitments, so always match your specific year to the correct generation page.
Where should I check the original tyre size for my Mercedes-Benz GLB?
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.
Do I need SUV-rated tyres on the 2019-present Mercedes-Benz GLB?
SUV-rated tyres carry a higher load index for the extra weight and ride height. Match or exceed the original load index. If you do mild off-road, all-terrain (A/T) tyres trade some on-road grip for better unpaved performance.
Are OEM tyres still fitted to new Mercedes-Benz GLB cars?
New UK Mercedes-Benz GLB 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.
