Missing spare tire and tools?
Hi all, I just took delivery of my 2022 GLS 450. It has the AMG Night package with 21" wheels and I LOOOOOOVE it.
One thing that surprises me is there's no spare tire, jack, air compressor, tools or first aid kit in the trunk. Only thing under the trunk floor is the emergency triangle and the tow eye.
As far as I can tell the tires aren't run flats, but I'm not entirely sure. They're Pirelli Scorpions and stamped MO.
Is this right? Did the factory forget something?

Post your VIN and I'll tell you what was supposed to be factory equipment. The MO stamping denotes that they were tires designated as Mercedes-Benz factory tires. If they were runflats, you would see MOExtended.

If you did get a spare, be sure that you also get the matching lug bolts. The spare that came with my GLS 450 uses shorter bolts. Those used for the normal alloy wheels are too long and can't be used with the spare.
