Are ML & GL running boards the same?

Hey guys I have simple question, are the ML & GL running boards are the same? Basically will the 07 GL running boards fit on my 06 ML?

Also, what tire pressure do you run on 08 ML350 with 19" rims?

I run my 08 ML tire pressure according to specs posted in the driver door column, which are 32 f and 38 r. If I like to have a smoother ride, I inflate the rear tires to 35/ 36 lbs.

No, They are Not the same

the GL has a longer running board, some bolt areas do not match. im sure coz the dealer made a mistake of sending me GL running boards which didnt fit my ML halfway thru the install.
