18 GLC 63S
Front wheels on back/rear on front.
Coral Springs Florida tire rack put fronts on rear and rears on front. They also torqued the bolt covers to 60.


Will there be any Permanent damage to the all wheel drive system from driving it for many months like this? I’ve hit the max speed limiter many times. Felt like the front was floating. And fronts would slide at high speed.

Florida is so full of the worst people.
