You are free to "improve" or "ruin" your car as you see fit and I'd defend your right to do so. Your comment just reinforces that it's fashion based rather than engineering based. I very much like the look of a good alloy wheel, I also value my comfort and fuel economy as well and as I can't see the wheels whilst sitting in the drivers seat it's more about my comfort than looks to me. It also appears because of the fashion that the tyres are not lasting that long...
Phew, I'm glad we still live in a free society!
The comfort of the ride is actually very good. Maybe I'm lucky not having any back problems. My wife does and yet she doesn't complain.
Let's face it, if I was choosing a car on purely functional requirements I wouldn't have chosen a GLC, or even an MB for that matter. My point is that I and I alone have the right to choose the car I want and based on whatever specification I like. If there is a problem with tyre sizes such as these on this particular car then the manufacturer should not offer them. The fact that they are but don't acknowledge the issue, tells me that they are more concerned about taking my money and running than they are ensuring the vehicle I purchase is reliable and problem free!
Now is that worse than choosing a car based on looks? I think so!
