Default Tire Change for a Benz

I was just wondering how everyone gets their tires changed for their Mercedes when it becomes time. Do you guys reccomend dealership, or can I go to just anyone? The big thing is I don't know if the Mercedes requires special tools or anything to change your tires. Thanks!

You don't have to go to a dealer. Just make sure the tires are rated for you car besides the correct size for the rims.

It seems the dealers are getting competitive, but still expensive go to the TIRE RACK web site and get opinions, warranty info, and testimonials. They will also suggest local installers, The only issue I have ever had is getting genuine MB wheel weights, but you can have them rebalanced after they are driven for a while if it bothers you!

Discount Tire and Tire Rack people are extremely helpful. Of course, I slip the local Discount Tire people donuts regularly. That always helps.
