There are no winter tires in that size.... you must buy a whole new set of wheels (17" or 18") and tires to fit.

I think somebody put winter 20's, but I think it's cheaper to get 17-18 inch set with rims and tires than 20 inch winter tires alone.

But snow tires MUST have narrow treads, (not wide) in order to work properly. (which normally translates into higher profile (series) tires) Last year I posted that we use the Thule chain set on our low profile 20" which work great, but not on paved roads. These specialized chains are easy to install and remove but work only in compacted snow roads and trails.

I stand corrected, I was wrong.
There is a High Performance Winter/Snow Tire made in the 235/45/R20 size for our GLK's....
It's called the Pirelli Winter 270 Sottozero Serie II. They must be installed on all four sides even if you do not have 4Matic!... they're $335 each. See link below for more info!
