22” rims vs. 20”
while 22” rims look cool — plus the S is a big car and takes them well, does that make for a much harder ride with less rubber between the rims and the road?

Forged 22 with pirelli tires is pretty smooth. The issue is getting cheap heavy cast wheels with cheap hard tires that destroy the ride.

Ah, come on now, don’t cheap out with only 22’s. What you really need is some 24’s! Or are those 26’s? Who cares about ride quality?

The only way a 22" wheel is going to look good is if it has a lip, which in turn makes it look more like a 20-21" which looks more proportional

first time posting but did use this site for a lot of my research, had a cls then moved up to a Sclass, 22's do look good. ride is not different unless your roads are all jacked up.had the same 22's on my cls, then I put them on my s550, but I'm leaning to put 24's on it. this will probably effect the ride a little bit do to the tire size.
