Ride Lowering and Performance - Suggestions

Hello,

I was wondering if it would be a good idea to have the ride height of my S550 with the option sport styling package with 19 inch wheels lowered by a few centimeters?

I intend to drive it a bit fast, plus it makes the car look sportier if it sits closer to the ground.
If the negatives of such an operation include huge reductions in the comfort feel during general cruising and fuel economy, I would decide against it.

Please hand out suggestions.

Thanks.

For your reference, mine is with Sport Package and 20-inches wheels. (The W222 is a big car, it makes the 20" wheels look kinda small on it.)

The ride is comfortable even on these 20" wheels... probably thanks to the AIRMATIC suspension.
