What is your wheel/tire setup on the GL (X166)?
Looking for data on wheel/tire setups on the GL (X166). Maybe this will help others with offsets and tire diameters and widths.

I'm also looking to see if 305/40/22 with offset 49mm will fit a X166 without issues, I know it will on a X164. Not sure if anyone has this setup.

Here are a few of mine that I've run with no isssues:
Size: 21x10.5
Offset: 46mm
Tire: 295/40/21

Size: 21x10
Offset: 46mm
Tire: 295/40/21

52mm at what wheel width. Does the 285/40 extend further than the wheel arch?
