300E a couple 1994 w124wagon E320 Wagon/,1971MGB Track/Rally, MG Midget Autocross ,2000 E320 wagon.
an inch taller

and over 32 revs per mile fewer.10% would be 82 3% would be 24. 32 is more than 24 so you would be out of error margin and your abs and cruise control could be affected.
Use the correct size and avoid the problems of having known it was a bad dea and doing it anyway.
I have some 245 and 225 17's brand new on brand new slk350 10 spoke rims if you want new rubber and rims that will improve handling and ride quality.
4% off is pushing the envelope.
