Anyone anticipate an issues 4matic wise with changing the front tire on a '22 GT 53 from a 265/40R20 to a 255/40R20. There are many more tire options with the 255 and 295 tire combo than the stock 265 and 295.
Ive attached some screenshots of tire size comparisions.
Hey you should be good as long as the tires are less than 3% difference. I just put 22 on gt53 and the front 285/30/22 and the rear tires are 335/25/22. They are 2mm bigger that stock 21 series tires and they ride amazing. They are 0.3% difference from front to back. I would do the manual reset for the transmission were you turn the car on without starting it. Then hold the gas pedal down until you her the click under your feet for 10 seconds. While still holding the gas pedal down shut the car off and continue to hold pedal down for 2 minutes. After your done go for a drive for at least 30 minutes. Easy driving.... You just reset you transmission changing habits with the new tires.
