I don't dislike the 20" wheels, but went 21's because I do like the design better AND they come with normal (summer performance) tires, not the runflat garbage. I have an utter disdain for runflats after having on my BMW. Absolute garbage.

I live in the Northeast and yes, if you drive in winter weather, you will need a winter tire/wheel package or some other solution. The performance tires on the 21's won't do much if at all in snow and they ride pretty rough (crabbing when turning) in temps below 45 degrees. I will probably end up buying a used set of the 20" MB GLC wheels and put winter or touring all season tires on them for the winter. Another option is to just switch out the summer performance tires (they won't last long) on the 21" wheels and then put all-season tires on the 21's. I believe there is only one tire available to do this...Pirelli Scorpion Verde All-Season.

Wish we would know when the new dash display from the C will migrate to the GLC.

DOG - Difference between AMG Optics Package and AMG Night Package

Got the coupe DOG off another member here not long ago. If I'm interpreting this right,. then the difference between the AMG Optics package and the AMG Night Package is that the night package will black out everything including the exhaust tips, whereas the Optics package will leave those in their original silver color.

I was initially in the 21" camp because I preferred the way they looked. However, after visiting a dealer and seeing GLCs wearing the 20" wheels with black accents, I really liked how they looked. From certain angles they really pop and it looks great. See some of my pictures below:

Thank you the wheel pictures look interesting. Definitely worth considering these as well.

Quick follow-up for everybody. Since I'm searching around the Northeast for a car, is there any particular way (site?) to search for all cars available at multiple dealers and get a reliable information about what options the cars have?

I can do the regional search on cars.com as an example but the options are very poorly (if even) described.

I can also do a search for cars on the mb site and the options are listed nicely but I think at some point quite early in the process I have to select one of the local dealers. Obviously it's not convenient to go through each dealer and check.

Any other ways?

Thank you all!

so the only difference for 2019 is the addition of the 3 zone climate control?
the tail-lamps appear to be different for 2019?
