Spare Tire Cost

I have a 2004 E320.

I suspect that my spare tire was stolen while car was with a restaurant valet.

Does anyone know what a new one is supposed to cost? I want to find out if possible before calling around to different dealers.

Wouldn't it be covered by your insurance?

Yes, can you believe someone freakin took the donut spare?

As for insurance, my deductible is $500. I have a speeding ticket so I had to find ways to get my insurance premium lower.

spclagent7, you may be able to get a full sized spare (a used 225/55-16 tire) for less than the cost of a new compact spare.
See this link https://mbworld.org/forums/showthrea...highlight=tire

Try auto recycler (junkyard) and eBay.

This may be a silly question, but are you sure the spare was in the trunk when you bought your used car from the dealer last year? Maybe you never had one? I can't imagine a valet needing a donut spare for an E-Class.
