Find Tyres for 2014-2020 Mercedes-Benz S-Class (C217)
Common factory fitments and replacement guidance for the 2014-2020 Mercedes-Benz S-Class.
About this generation
Mercedes-Benz fits run-flat tyres on many S-Class models, paired with tyre pressure monitoring and no spare wheel. If your car was supplied with run-flats, replacements should typically also be run-flats.
This generation of the S-Class 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: C217. Use the chassis code to confirm you have the right generation when ordering tyres.

Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.
What does the chassis code C217 mean for tyre choice?
The C217 chassis code identifies this specific generation of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class. Tyre fitment guides and parts catalogues use the chassis code to match correct sizes, load indices and speed ratings — useful when ordering online.
What should Mercedes-Benz S-Class 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.
Is the Mercedes-Benz S-Class still on sale in the UK?
As of the 2014-2020 window, the Mercedes-Benz S-Class was on sale in the UK during this period. Tyre fitments listed here reflect UK-market specifications.
The S-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.
Did the 2014-2020 Mercedes-Benz S-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.
