New member and needs help upgrading wheels

Just go my first 2014 c63 ! Equipped with Tire Pressure Loss Warner planning to upgrade my wheel from OEM 18" to 19". Will i get any warning message? Will the system detect a difference from 18" to 19" wheel thus it will display warning. I hope it doesn't work like a TPMS.

TIA

If your car does not have TPMS sensors in the wheels then you have the Tire Pressure Loss Warning System. This system works with the ABS System and monitors the rotational speed of the wheels. Once you install your new wheels and set the tire pressures you may need to restart the system through the steering wheel controlled menu.

Wheel size will be different but tire diameter will be the same. The car won't be able to tell the difference - you'll be just fine.

If you don't have TPMS it is good practise to reset the pressure loss warning system once a month anywhy.
19" wheels and tires are pretty much the same diameter so no worries.
