2014 glk 350 time for first tire rotation HELP
Hello all,
I have read the forum and can't find the dyi for this process. (preferably a list of tools.) I would like to do the rotation myself. But when i went out to look at the rims i noticed the "flower" pattern lugs.
This is closest thread i could find about the lugs. https://mbworld.org/forums/s-class-w...50-wheels.html Is it just a 17mm or not?
I called one of the 4 local houston mb dealers and they said the guys use snap on tools and that there was no "special" tool for me to buy.
I would like to 1. prevent wheel damage. 2. Lug damage if possible i know they are caps

I ended up buying a thin wall 17mm with protective plastice sleeve.

Discount tire did the rotation without damage. They were willing to use the socket i purchased online.
If i had to do it again i would remove the center caps myself. Two solutions credit to the youtube folks.
