ride on "21 vs "20 wheels

hi everyone

I'm planning to order A GT53 4-door with AMG BODY CONTROL and was wondering if the "21 rims will make the ride too harsh...on Eastern European bumpy roads especially

Considering getting the 20" multi-spoke although the 21's look really good! (the car also looks slightly underwheeled on the 20s especially in the back)

Grateful for any feedback

I’ve read that you should opt for the 20“, and pick the right tires. Also lots of negatives about the sport seats.

Are the Sport Seats too uncomfortable for every day driving?

Not sure about 20vs21 but I have 21s and I think I feel any little pebble on the road. It’s my only complaint about the car. I previously had an A7 and the A7 rides on a cloud compared to the GT63. When I brought it up at the dealership for another issue I was having their response was, “well you bought a legal street rocket”
