Greetings everyone,
I apologise if this inquiry seems trivial; but, I am entirely inexperienced in this matter.
I possess an E92 320D Coupe equipped with 18-inch staggered wheels that were included with the vehicle.
I dislike the jarring ride they provide, and I have been informed that installing 16-inch wheels, together with the appropriate tires to preserve the correct diameter, will significantly enhance the vehicle's ride quality.
I informed my local tyre technician of my intentions, and he cautioned that it would disrupt the ABS sensors, alter the gear ratios, appear aesthetically unpleasing, and impair the vehicle's handling.
Will the 16-inch wheels enhance ride quality sufficiently for me to see a difference?
Should I adhere to the 18" wheels as the tyre specialist suggests, since replacing them with 16" wheels will disrupt the system?
I owned an E46 320ci with 16" wheels, and it was significantly more comfortable than this vehicle.
Thank you in advance for your responses.
