I know the wheelbase is based on the 7 series though the difference between both these and the 5 is very small. But my point was that the front suspension is basically the same with a few minor tweaks, oh and trim I am discussing is the S/E.

I'm not a fan of run-flats though clearly BMW are and I know how much increasing the alloy size effects so I suppose I am expecting the new 5 series S/E with 19" to ride as well as the E-class on similar rubber, or even the XF on 20", anything worse will greatly effect it's appeal.
