Airmatic vs potholes
I'm planning to get the new C43 and it looks like airmatic will be standard? How much more does it soften up the ride in comfort mode vs springs on 19in rims? Is the airmatic system easier on the rim/wheel when hitting potholes?

2021 AMG C63S Coupe
I went from a 2017 c300 4matic coupe to a 2018 C43 Coupe w/the 19 inch performance wheels/tires. There is a noticeable difference in the feel of the suspension especially when hitting a pot hole......the c300 felt harsher and made a hollow/loud noise (hard to describe). The c43 is much more forgiving with pot holes and smoother feel and sound.
