Hi,

I am due for B Service in a week. I called Dealership and told them that I see little bit more thread wear on sides of my front tires. I asked them if they did tire rotation. They said as part of A service or B Service tire rotation is not included.
And he said as some models have rear tires of larger size than the front tires so, tire rotation is not part of service. But he did say its possible to do tire rotation on GLE 350. I see a very minor difference in thread design between front and rear tires.

Have you guys did tire rotation on your GLEs.?
Do you guys see a little bit thread wear on the sides of the front tires?

I have 17k on my car. Please let me know.

I rotate every six months or around every 6000 miles and my tires are wearing evenly. I do this to all my cars and the result is the same

RA112623

i don't do tire rotation on any vehicle (some can't be done anyway). i watch tire wear and if i see it off, i know THAT tire has issues that need to be addressed. ron

I rotate my tires every 5,000 miles on my 2015 ML350. I just rotate them and do not rebalance them. The Mercedes dealer always asked me if I want them to do it during service, but they charge too much and always charge for balancing. I am approaching 40,000 miles on my original tires and will be getting new tires in a month. I take my tires to a local oil change place and they rotate them for 19.95, but I watch them and make sure they use a torque wrench. I even have special lug nut/bolt sockets that are made so as not to score up the inside of the lug holes. I make them use them when loosening and tightening the lugs nuts/bolts As far as different size tires on front vs rear on ML and GLE, it mostly on the ML400, GLE43 and 63. Maintaining correct tire pressure is CRITICAL. I run 36 lbs all the way around and check them monthly with a tire gauge.
