20" BBS Wheels on 2020 GLC200 Limited

Hi Guys!

Planning on upgrading my rides' wheels to a 20" BBS Staggared.

My concern is, will my engine be "taxed" too much for the additional rotating mass on the wheels?
will I notice the difference?


The front is the stock 18\" and the rear is the one I plan on getting.

I do not think that the engine will be taxed, but some things like the speedo and maybe the traction control might not like the difference size wheel/tire diameter that you run. You may have to take it to the dealer to get reprogrammed.

You will definitely notice a difference in the ride quality (worse or better depending on your perspective).
