what are you doing for Winter sets ? My GLC 2023 comes with a staggered setup, 235/55R19 front and 255/50R19 rear. Called the Merc Dealership, they are pushing towards Winter tire package which is almost 5k. Based on 3rd party website, it seems that I can just replace the All Seasons with 19 winter tires using the same rims. Anybody tried ?
This is a screenshot from the Merc Dealership.
Mine is pushing the same for $4399. What's pushing the cost to crazy amount is they're trying to sell us alloy rims to go along with the winters. I am fine with just some cheap steelies for the winter, that should knock the set price down to under $2k
A second set of wheels saves you the time and expense of flipping tires twice a year. Find an inexpensive wheel set, maybe some less than perfect take-offs, because wheel damage is likely during the winter. Consider a square setup -- trying to find winter tires in a staggered setup limits selection, drives up the price and distances availability. Winter driving is all about safety, traction and control. Nobody gives a crap about how cool your wheels and tires look when they're fuming about the damage you just inflicted to their car.
We just put a set of 19” Vredestein winter tires on ours, and just got some low cost aluminum wheels. Full set was around $2K. Hard to find steelies these days, but the low end aluminums are pretty affordable
Winter driving is all about proper safety and ensuring the well-being of individuals. It is always recommended to have an extra pair of tires if you are planning to drive long distances. This will save you from all kinds of hazards that can occur while driving. You can also attach chains to the tires of the cars. It provides extra friction and more security while driving.

You front and back rims are 8J / 9J wide. You can just swap out your current tires for winter 235/55R19's. A set of Bilzzak DM-V2 should run you about $900. Get the tires at Costco and seasonal tire change is about $60 I think.
