2020 M550 20" wheels- are F/R same width?

Hey folks, looking to swap out the OEM Summers with non-runflat all-seasons on a 2020 M550 and would prefer a square setup.

OEM tires are 245/35-20 F / 275/30-20 R.
I'm fairly certain that both front and rear 20" wheels are same size, but wanted to make sure.

Ideally I'd like to run 245/35 all around, rotate when needed, and squeeze out some additional life out of the new A/S's.

Side question, how does the AWD system not get fried from overuse- the OEM rolling diameters with this set up are a quarter inch off?

front side wall = 245 x 0.35 = 85.75mm
rear side wall = 275 x 0.30 = 82.5mm

2 x 85.75mm - 82.5mm = 0.256"

Welp.... looks like the FRONT are 20X8 and REARS 20X9. So I will need to stagger the tires as per OEM... 245/35-20 F / 275/30-20 R

My vote goes to the Michelin PS3ZP, in my opinion a new revelation in runflats, which performs truly like a performance tire and rides smooth and quiet. Love mine. New tire, though, may be hard to get.
