Switching from Winter to Summer tires
My car comes with 20" wheels, and I asked my dealer to install winter tires which I bought as full set with rims from them.
Since on the 20" wheels, the offset between front and rear is different, how can you tell by examining the wheels, which one belongs to the rear and which to the front?

Which way's front?

Hello All,
Hopefully this hasn't already been asked elsewhere and I've missed it.
I have a '20 GLE-350, and I purchased the 21-inch multispoke wheelset with it (love that set!) - those are my 'summer' tires set.
I was also able to find a set of factory take-offs (from a '20 GLE-350) of the 20-inch AMG 5-twin spoke aero wheels, complete with the factory TPMS sensors; I purchased a set of Nokian winter tires for those, and this is my 'winter' tires set.
My question: what (if any?) programming steps need to be taken to have my GLE read the winter set TPMS sensors? (And, if programming is needed, will that need to be re-programmed each time I swap between the summer & winter tire set?)
Thanks in advance!
