These two stickers were on the drivers side door panel right next to
each other.  Seems to me they are contradicting each other, with one
saying the front should be 58 and back 61, and the other front 61 and
the back 58.  I think the white one is right with the front at 58 and
backs at 61.

The black one looks like it might be from Mercedes, so I'll get the
book and see if it says anything on this.

 
I'm gonna guess that the Mercedes is as it comes from THEIR factory,
and the other is as it is final built ... but 60 over all might be a
good as either
 
 

You could weigh it and then set pressures at the tire manufacturers
recommendation.  Probably the best starting point. To Bill’s point, a tread
gauge and visual inspection, after establishing your baseline, is the way
to go.

On the other hand, if you follow current “wisdom”, you will be replacing
the tires after four or five years anyway so, within reason,  go with what
gives you the best ride.
