GLC Front tire aspect ratio different than rear?
Thinking of purchasing this 2nd hand vehicle off a close friend.
I noticed the front and rear tire difference, this can't be good for the 4matic system right, or does it not matter much?
Front is 255/45R20, rear is 275/40R20.

Appreciate your insight

Check the tire information on the door jamb to see the recommended sizes. Indeed, some models have different sizes front and rear:

In would expect it on AMG models, as long as diameters are the same between front and rear 4matic will be just fine.

These tire size diameters differ by only 0.3" (1% ) which is probably OK.
