Tire rack is giving bad advice if they are saying to put normal tire pressure in the wheels as stated by Mercedes. I did that on a previous set of rims on my 2001 Saab convertable and it turned out to be a $1000 error. Normal pressure was 31 lbs from Saab and when I upgraded the rims to Ronal 17" with the 31lbs the rims went bad in 4 months. Called Ronal to complain and the stated that the 17' rims should have a cold pressure of 37 -38lbs cold. Since I replaced the rims and increased the air pressure I haven't had any trouble with the rims. I am running P-6000 tires.
