2020 Spare on 2016-19 GLC. Yes or No.
Hello All,
Looks like Mb finally providing an optional spare tire for 2020 GLC just for $200.
Wondering if it can be used on 16-19 GLCs?

I also emailed my dealer and will post when a reply is received. To me it looks as if the upholstered cover panels over the metal subfloor are eliminated, at least in part, when a spare tire is installed. If so, on earlier GLCs these panels will have to be removed (partially?) to accommodate the spare so as to avoid interference with closing the hatch. I suppose a tool kit is part of the spare tire package but may have to be ordered separately.

I explored purchasing this spare for my 2017 GLC300 through the dealer parts department but the wheel, tire and lug bolts were priced at $600 without the jack. At that price I dropped the idea!

“The spare wheel as a replacement/spare part is currently on backorder with Mercedes-Benz. They are only supplying them right now for factory MY2020 new vehicle builds with that option.
Once they become open for dealer ordering as a spare part, price on the wheel is $434.00 and then the price for the appropriate spare tire to fit is $173.00. As a spare part, MB does not offer a tire/wheel pre-mounted option.“
For that much money I would rather go for the full size wheel!

Here is the answer I got from parts department.

I’ll wait another year and than start to go to LQK salvage yards.

i hate to say it, but i think i would pay $600 to have spare, provided it fits neatly underneath
no doubt the price is crazy, but one use and the headache it eliminated is well worth it

I am wondering how it will fit and what needs to be removed (storage tray?).
Thanks,

Hi, Do you happen to have part numbers for the wheel and tire? I was thinking about trading my 2016 in for a 2020 just for the spare tire, my wife's GLC has less than 9,000 miles. I want the comfort of having a spare tire. Paying $600 for a spare is a much better deal than trading in my wife's car.

there is a fuse box which is sticks out so bad. I have 2018 GLC
Here is my plan to fight missing spare tire:
Vehicle Tool Kit 166-580-69-00 - $91.00
not a best solution, but it's better looking. Understand not the best for women, but I'm planning to have winter/summer sets,
so worst case I will have to bring one whole wheel.
