Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV tires
The Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV leaves the factory on 265/50 R20 and 275/40 R22 and 275/45 R21 depending on wheel size, and the 265/50 R20 107H below is the one most owners are replacing. A standard load 107 rating is modest for an electric car and says something about where this one's curb weight sits. It is staggered: a 275 section at the front and a 285 at the back, so the two can never be swapped across axles and the rear goes first. The Cadillac Lyriq takes the same size.

Your own placard is the authority. You will find it on the on the driver's door jamb, on the B-pillar. Where it disagrees with this page, it wins. Match or exceed the size, load index, speed rating and construction class it gives, and use its pressure figure rather than anything printed on the tire.
What changes on this car
The 21in wheel comes both ways in Michelin's US data: square on 275/45 R21 all round, or staggered with a 285/45 R21 113H rear, which is how the Maybach EQS 680 is listed. The staggered rear carries 1,150 kg per tire.
UK and US cars on 22in differ. UK listings give a square 275/40 R22 107V, while the 2026 US listings give a staggered set with a 285/40 R22 110H rear and an H rating.
The 2023 US 20in set, 265/50 R20 107H, is standard load; every larger size is XL. Across the range the load index runs from 107 to 113, 975 to 1,150 kg per tire.

Every figure here comes from one tire maker's own fitment data, checked across different years or trims. That is a second look rather than a second opinion, so check the label on your door jamb before you buy.

Common questions
- What size tires does the Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV take?
- It runs 265/50 R20 and 275/40 R22 and 275/45 R21. The exact fitment for your car is on On the driver's door jamb, on the B-pillar.
- Can I fit a cheaper tire to a Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV?
- Only at 265/50 R20 107H or better. That is the figure to hold: a tire below the load index, the speed rating or the construction class is not a cheaper one, it is the wrong one.
