I've already commented on the ride on mine in other threads, but here's my tuppence worth:

xLine 20D (Standard dampers) on 18" non-RFT Pirelli Cinturato P7 225/50: ride very good on "normal" roads, and copes with smooth speed humps etc very well. Does not like potholes or sharp ridges at all. Very quite on some road surfaces, and excessively noisy on others.

Now trying with 17" with Michelin CrossClimate 225/55: ride definitely better on the rough stuff, no difference on the smooth (None needed!). Quieter on all surfaces.

I must say I've not noticed any significant wind noise at all (Haven't tried with the roof open, but would be surprised if there wasn't wind noise).
