check and see if you have any rubbing around the front wheels...
I have 305/35/22 and they are fine.. except that you can't find tires in that actual size anymore!!!! Pirelli seems to have discontinued the Scorpion in that size.

what wheels are these? I have a 2016 GL450 ordered for my wife to come in August and am looking at potential 22" options. she had a denali while back with 24's and the ride was surprisingly smooth, albeit not as smooth would it have had stock wheels. i ordered the appearance package, but may get aftermarket 22's and garage the others. it's a lease, so i'll put stockers back on before turning it in and probably just use them on the next GL after...if bolt patterns/offsets remain the same. i really like those wheels you have.

ADV1 ... they are made to order. Talk with Michael at Acute Performance.. he can sort what you need... just make sure that you use an installer that has a wheel grabber from the center.. as they will surely knick the seal where the wheels come together.....
