|  r170 spare wheel Hi All, Just purchased an R170 230K and it appears to be missing the spare, already had a blow out and ended up on the back of a lowloader. Anyone know where I could I pick one up? ie part number etc? Many thanks R |

| Welcome to the forum redzer007!! I'm going to assume you're in the US. You should fill out more of the info so people can help you more effectively. And you might tell us what year your SLK is. Oh, and some pics too.  These are part numbers I have for a spare: 98-99 170 400 01 00 00-03 170 400 11 00 The stealership will more than likely rape you, try calling Phil at Mercedesshop.com or 1-888-333-4642. Tell him Kevin in Germany sent you. Good Luck!

| Some model years have a pump and spray repair kit. It's located behind a panel at the front of the spare tire well. I'm hunting for a collapsible spare that has the same off set, clear the rotors and calipers, and proper tire diameter when inflated. |

| Thanks for the replies Guys, Fair point on the added info I will update. Im actually in Ireland (Dublin). And yep I found the sealant used the pump, but as the tire had blown out, about a 2 inch tear the sealant was no use, hence the tow-truck, what I was hoping to find was a space saver spare wheel. I assume the part numbers still apply, Thanks Redmond |
