It would require a 32 mm spacer to clear the front suspension. The stock tires on the ML320 are 255/65/16. It fit my 16" fine but I highly doubt that an unmodified 14" Syncro can swallow that much rubber. Although $500 seems like a good deal, I did better. I paid $275 for a set of four with tires from eBay. BenT |
