I really don’t want to influence you and can only relate to my GLC250d fitted with 18” dia wheels. When I 1st saw my front tyres wearing on the outside edge I thought tracking was out so had it checked and it was fine so went into forums and like you was horrified to see what some people were going through but I have to emphasise my car has never suffered from skipping or crabbing just the tyre wear so as I said MB fitted full set of softer rubber (maybe winter tyres i don’t know) foc. I’ve since done around 3k miles and they seem to be doing fine but only time will tell. I absolutely love this car and if I buy another (which I’m likely to do) would stick with 18” wheels, hopefully the problem will be sorted by MB by then. I do completely understand your concerns, in 2 years I’ve had no issues/problems with the car at all whereas my brother has bought a new Landrover Discovery sport a year ago and has had nothing but problems which he’s sick and tired of. All the best with whatever you choose, Pete
