Ride Quality - 18" vs 19"
Hello all - I am looking to buy a 2023 GLC300. I like the appearance of the AMG black line option but it increases the wheel size to 19". The main reason I am buying this vehicle is due to its comfortable ride quality on NJ's broken roads. Has anyone driven them back to back or have an info to share. I am sure the 19" is still considered "good", but I want the best ride I can get out of this vehicle without going to air suspension. Thanks in advance.

We have a 2023 GLC with 19's no air ride. We also have a 2016 E class sport with 17's . The GLC rides much better than E class. I think you will be happy with 19's, 20's not sure about

I have a GLC300 with 20" wheels. They ride fine, though obviously a bit harder than 18 or 19".
But they do hug the curves nicely.
