Description of the problem	Many mercedes benz customers experience premature tire failure. Mercedes says it is due to road conditions. It is a new problem with new mercedes e series cars. A person wrote "have been in the tire & wheel business for over 15 years and have seen this problem many times. Mostly with after market wheels where the standard wheel sizes reach all the way up to 26-inch diameters. It has nothing to do with a defective wheel or tire. Mercedes benz has decided to install larger wheels on their vehicles so that the vehicle has a larger footprint to improve handling and to improve the appearance of the car. The problem with installing a larger diameter wheel on any car is you are now left with a tire that has a very short sidewall. From 2003
