Suitable spare for 2014 GLK250

The 2014 GLK does not come with a spare. But some owners would like to have one.

Full size would be ideal, but finding a place for it difficult.

Searches came up with two possibilities. A collapsible tire like the Vredestein Space Master

or a compact spare like this Continental:



The stock tires are 235/50R19. From what I have been able to find, OD of these tires are about 739mm. But so far I have not been able to find dimensions of the above spares. Firstly, I would think OD inflated should be same as stock tire. Second dimension would be outside dimensions to determine storage space needed (collapsed for Vredestein).

Anyone have info or can point toward sites that may have it? (I have asked one vendor and Vredestein, but no useful responses)

This was response from Vredestein USA:

Good Day Graham

We are not able to sell the Space Saver Spare. The only distributors are Authorized Automobile Dealers. You would need to contact a Mercedes dealer that can help you with the correct size for your Mercedes.

I'm sorry i could be of more help. Good Luck to you
