I wouldn't bother. Air ride suspension on the bigger mercs is a source of trouble and maintenance is expensive. Besides, no true sports car rides on air.
If you're looking for ride comfort, stay away from 19s. I recently switched from 17s to 18s and did not notice any change in comfort. On the other hand some owners of 19s have complained and you would not be the first who has switched back.
