Default AWS & 19” vs Standard & 18”

I’m considering a ‘17 awd premium or luxury and would like to get some opinions on the ride quality of each, particularly in the Midwest where road quality is not the best. Is ride quality compromised considerably with the 19”s and if so does the avs compensate at all? Are the avs settings the same on the luxury as the f sport? Thanks.

you really don't feel the AWS until you drive hard or take corners with more haste.
ride quality from 18 to 19 is very minimal but there is definitely a difference.
if you drive on snowy conditions I would suggest going with 18s, plus when the tires need replacing 18s are much cheaper!
