Wow, 235 in the rear?
No 245/40's in the blizzaks LM-60 at the time I bought them, seriously backordered. Oh well, they're just snow tires. 235/45's.

45 series tires sure ride nice........ an mushy

That's good to know. I was thinking of going with 45 series all around this winter.

Whoops... meant 225/45's, but yes even on the rears. There are a lot more options in that size, and only about 2 if you go 245/40 /17 on the rears.

With the wear i'm seeing so far on the summers, I'll cook the softer winters pretty fast. It would be nice to rotate, even though it would require remounting them.

My CLK hibernates in the garage for the winter.

That's why I kept the trusty 'ole E320 wagon with 4MATIC
