19x8.5" wheels all all around
Hi, New to forum. Just bought a CPO 2015 S550 4matic. Is it possible to (without issue other than speedo calibration) to run the front wheel set 19 x8.5 on all 4 corners? I use this car for a daily 120mi. round trip only. I just want the most comfort possible and the ability to rotate tires every 5kmi or so. I assume you can buy spacers for the rear so it doesn't look stupid. Thanks For you help.

You can run this configuration with zero issues as long as the tire diameters are the same, which they should be on what is called a square set-up. I have staggered on my 4 matic now and I do not like how the staggered set up effects the tracking of the car. On the freeway it tram lines a bit when going over linear seams in the road. Not sure if this is the staggered wheels or spacers in the rear but on my next S550 I will stick with the square set up as I will have 4matic based on the weather in the PNW.
