I have never seen anyone go 20's on a 4Matic. people do have 19's BUT I've been warned and so have others the 4Matic system is sensitive you can do it at your own risk .you'll most likely be buying tires every 7months and have fitment issues. regardless of that its all at your own risk ill try to find the post where I was given the longest of reasons why to not even go 19's on the 4Matic and i'll PM it to you. with 20's you'll have to slam your car and will have to factor in the offset of the rims to make it work.

I'll do my best to find the post and message you.

also should add your ride quality is going to be **** if you use it as a daily driver with 20's
