My wife has an SLK and I drive a CLK . As you folk are aware they have larger wheels on the rear, presumably to assist traction. My question is what would be the benefits of having the same size wheels on the rear as the front ? Presumably the slightly narrower width would give a theoretical improvement in grip in snow and the opposite in normal conditions ? Would our insurance company need to be notified ?
The benefit is that I could carry one size of spare and not have to rely on a poxy space saver.
Any thoughts / comments guys ?
