Fitment comes from each tyre's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

What Mercedes Benz GLE 250d 4Matic drivers say
The most recent owner reviews from this car, in their own words.
25.000 km on them: the best winter tyres I got so far. Handling very good and comfort very hight. Wear low. Michelin's name is here maintained.
On my GLC since 3 summers, about 30.000 km done. It is a really good tire overall, the wear is very limited, the only aspect I don't appreciate much is the noise, and the fuel economy not better than the winter tire, a Michelin Alpin 5 SUV
Dry grip was very impressive and no noticeable sledging in the wet either. Wear rate was exceptional (80,000+ km) given the handling of this tire. I've run Falken FK510's on this same vehicle at the same time (rears) & they only lasted 31,000km. The fact the N'Fera RU5's were on the front & doing more work, than the Falkens, the result is amazing.
Good road holding in the dry, much better than the scary pirelli scorpion in the wet condition, doesn’t aqua planned as much as the pirelli scorpion that came with the car. Have only driven for 10,000km so let’s see how long it would last, i’d be happy if it last 40,000km but the compound seems way softer compare to the scary pirelli scorpion.
When I bought my Mercedes GLE 250 4Matic as a brand new one, it was originally wearing some other brands' tyres 265/45 R20. They lasted 45,000 Km.
Then I put on the same dimensions YOKOHAMA GEOLANDAR X-CV 265/45 R20 108W.
By using it in exactly the same Offroad and inroad treatment, they lasted 65,000 Km and I changed them today with the same model.
I was very considering on the noise but it proved to be much better than the original ones and so was the wet handling. I am absolutely amazed by their performance and endurance. For the last question I said I would buy it again....well, actually today I BOUGHT IT AGAIN !!!
