20" to 21" wheels/tires

We just purchased a 2018 GLC 63 with the factory 20" wheel/tire combo. Who has gone from the 20 to 21 combo and how is the ride? I ask because we have a 2010 ML550 and went from factory 19 (I believe) to 22 and the ride is harsh and tire noise is loud. We don't want that result again.

I have an 18 GLC63 with 21" Michelins Sports and the ride is OK. I certainly wouldn't call it lush! Not much road noise at all.
