fix or replace spare tire for 2011 W212
Hello everyone. Today when I was checking on the spare tire and noticed it was flat. White inflating the tire I could hear hissing sound near the valve. Is there repairable or does it need to be replaced? where can I get it fixed or buying a new one? Thanks

Take your spare wheel to your local TIRE SHOP.

Have them service just your rubber valve stem... free or $15

While you're there have them rotate your wheels if applicable to all similar tire size (I do, all my 4 wheels are identicals)

Most tire shops won't repair any tire over 7 years old. You'll probably have to buy a new tire.

Mercedes in not making tires and I doubt you will have many choices.
So call local shop and check what they can get you. Or try Tire Rack.
