They're around ~ 39 right now but I plan to lower that to 35/36 to see if that makes the ride even better. What about your set up?

After 4 years and about 8 replaced RFT my tire warranty has expired on my 2015 S550 4Matic. I now need 2 new tires so I'm contemplating going to a19 inch. Where did you get the wheels? Are you still pleased with your Michelin Primacy MXM4 tires? Have you had any issues? Are those RFT too?

With so many W222’s out there, there is a ready supply of excellent condition used wheels. Many tire shops can obtain these for you, check the wheels when they get them, mount new tires and get you going. Of course, you will pay for this service and could save a bit by buying the wheels directly, but I’d have a good tire shop do the whole thing. If you prefer to buy new OEM wheels, there is only one place I would use: ALLOYWHEELSDIRECT.net. I have bought from them and their prices & service are great. Best of luck to you.

Interesting that you have issues with Potholes here, I have never had any problems...

Do you live near and drive in the city? If so I think you're fortunate. I met someone in the wheel business today who said he has a lot of customers with the same issue.
