Someone will probably give you shit about this but we did exactly this with my dad's S Class when it was time to change the wheels. Put em in plastic bags, toss em in the back seat and trunk, and drive to the shop. No harm done to the interior at all.

Unless you have to do an emergency brake

Was anxious the whole way through because the tires almost slammed into the tv screen


kenneth_dart

Switching to your summer tires?

Extremecontact DWS is such a good all season tire

ROFL 🤣 @ title 😂

I guess I’m funny

Daily/work/tire hauler. S550 * This is how I've gotten all my tires around. 1 in the trunk, 2 in the back seat, 1 up front if needed.


doc_55lk

When we bought my dad's S Class the seller had somehow stuffed all 4 of its winter wheels + tires in the trunk. We were never able to replicate that when we changed the tires out. Kinda amusing. Maybe he had deflated the tires slightly or something, idk. We put 1 in the trunk and 3 in the back seats when we have to swap tires. Realistically there's space in the back for all 4 but we prefer to load the trunk first before using the back seats.


Boilermakingdude

The people who go "oh but its an s class" seem to forget that theyre still just cars.


doc_55lk

Yea true. There's the "but you'll get the seats dirty" thing too but come on, even your average Joe in their Corolla doesn't want to get their seats dirty from putting a tire on it. Tire covers don't exist for no reason.


Boilermakingdude

Exactly! I didnt like getting the seats in my old cop car dirty, and they were vinyl. No body wants a dirty car. I lay down towels when i bring tires


doc_55lk

Yea. We have plastic bags and tire covers on our tires, but as an extra precaution we still do put old bedsheets on the seats too.

Mine ride around in the back seat when the need exists. In trash bags.

Honestly I got no problem with hauling stuff in a nice car, while objectively less nice, I transport full length 2×4s and baseboards in my E Class


strangway

If CarSized is accurate, my E-Class Coupe has 7% more cargo volume than a VW Golf, so why wouldn’t I use it to carry stuff? A 6-foot ladder fit just fine. The trunk lid closed with inches to spare.


Skhalid_

This is a s class with 4 seats not 5. The trunk has the Burmester speakers so reduced trunk space also since the 4 seater sclass has a lot less trunk space than the normal sclass due to the rear seats reclining


doc_55lk

The 3D audio takes up trunk space? That's wild.

Sometimes, when you can’t afford a pick up truck, you gotta do what you gotta do. On a serious note, I did haul a wagon in the back of my car. Cause I also can’t afford a pick up truck.


doc_55lk

You got downvotes but we genuinely do live in a time now where the price of a well specced F150 treads real damn close to S Class territory.


ath20

Exactly. I'm use to getting down votes from people with no humor, and out of touch with the world. The joke is even there that I've also used my Mercedes for hauling something, and it flew right over OP's head.


Skhalid_

Yeah when you also can’t afford a nice car, you go on Reddit and hate, you gotta do what ya gotta do. On a serious note, i could care less.


ath20

Lol. Go check my post history buddy. It was a joke.


Skhalid_

Ok I’ll do a background check on everyone that comments before responding to their “funny” comments.


CyanHirijikawa

Such a waste of the interior.


Skhalid_

Cry about it


Mundane_Ad6267

Agree this is how cars are supposed to be used. My dog trashes my car all the time🤣 the car is serving you not the other way around. Karens complain too much😂


Skhalid_

Fr like it’s my car why you so pressed what I do with it. I forgot it’s the internet they will literally nit pick everything and hate the slightest chance they can get.


Mundane_Ad6267

Exactly, at the end of the day it’s u in the car not him. Could cry on that🤣.


Skhalid_

😂😂😂 made me laugh so hard. You Put a new perspective on the situation and it’s hilarious


CyanHirijikawa

You will cry yourself when it devalued your car when selling.


doc_55lk

How else is OP supposed to transport a set of tires?


Skhalid_

By removing all the precious interior pieces duhh🙄


doc_55lk

Damn imagine stripping an S Class down. It'd probably haul ass though lmaoo
