I have 20 inch. They look great but I couldn't wait for 19 inch. 19 would save you more fuel and have less emissions if you care about those things.

If yo check the brochure (at least in U.K.) it would have a note about fuel consumption which reads all figures are based on standard equipment and smallest tiry size

Also less chance of curb rash with 19's.

Hi
I just collected my GLC at the weekend, been a long wait due to availability of the Night Package option. I went for the option 20" alloys offered as an option on the night package.

Anyone who cares about fuel economy of 19s vs 20s needs to take a long look in the mirror and decide if this is the car they want, lol.

Not sure what you mean really, actually in UK it's a diesel car and both 220d and 250d has one of the best fuel economies 56.5mpg across the whole class
