The spare tire on a Mercedes Benz GLA 250 is located underneath the trunk. Ensuring your tires are in top condition is crucial for safety. Eventually, issues may arise with this component, such as feathering and cupping problems. Keep an eye out for premature tire wear and check for any holes from running over nails. Periodically inspect for any looseness in the spare tire area. It is recommended to monitor tire pressure monthly and plan to replace the spare tire as needed. Changing your tires every 30,000 to 50,000 miles is a good practice to avoid accidents on the road.
Eunice, it seems like your GLA must have a different package than the rest of ours. Unfortunately, a spare tire is not included with the GLA model.
There is no spare tire included. This car can travel up to 50 miles with a flat tire.
My GLA 250 does not come equipped with a spare tire.
In the Mercedes Benz GLA 250, you'll find the spare tire stored in the rear of the vehicle, beneath the trunk.
My GLA vehicle is equipped with Run Flat tires and a can of flat tire fix instead of a spare tire and jack. I am considering if there is sufficient space in the back compartment to store a compact spare tire as I prefer not to wait for a tow service, especially in unsafe areas.
The 2018 Mercedes-Benz GLA250 model does not come equipped with a spare tire. Instead, it features a tire well that is too shallow to hold a spare tire. However, you have the option to purchase a deflated spare tire that fits inside the well, which you can inflate when needed for use.
Hey Carl, could you let us know where to purchase a non-inflated spare tire that is compatible with the spare compartment of a 2018 MB GLA 250? Also, could you provide the company name and contact number? I'm interested in moving away from run-flat tires as the Bridgestone Dueler ones are only lasting about 25 miles and I end up replacing them every year. It's just absurd.
I have a big plastic container installed in the wheel well of my GLA. Do you know what this is for?
I can't believe the GLA 250 is sold without a spare tire in the US. I'm really surprised that it was approved for sale here. I don't want to take that chance.
I don't have a spare tire in my car.
