Mercedes-Benz SL-Class Spare Tires
The Mercedes-Benz SL-Class used a 5x112 mm bolt pattern for all models from 1971 to 2020 along with tire diameters ranging from 25.3" to 26.0" tall. Using a temporary compact spare tire with a diameter close to the standard tire has many benefits, especially for modern vehicles with larger brake calipers and anti-lock brakes or traction control systems.
The tire diameter and the wheel diameter clearance have been taken into account for the specific Mercedes-Benz SL-Class years and options. In this case, 125/80R17 and 125/80R18 spare tire sizes are used to avoid vehicle components while closely matching the original tire size diameters. We've provided a breakdown by vehicle generation and model specifics to help you find the correct Mercedes-Benz SL-Class spare tire.
