Wheel change
I have been driving around in my W204 220cdi AMG Sport+ for a month. I love it but the ride is a bit harsh. I think this is due to poor roads here in the UK and the 18" staggered wheels.
If I were to switch back to a set of 17" wheels - do you think the ride would improve much?

Yes, tires and wheels make a very noticeable difference. I changed from 18" AMGs with Conti ProContact OEM tires to 17s with Pirelli Cinturato P7s and wife and I much prefer the ride this way.
