Since I have no experience beyond the 17 inch Saab wheels, I was wondering if a 20 inch wheel would necessarily give a harsher ride than say a 17 inch wheel, if both tires had the same profile height? I haven’t found the 17 inch Saab wheels to give a harsher ride than the 16 inch wheels provided you select the right tires. There is quite a difference from one tire brand to another. Tires certainly do seem to get much more expensive as the diameter of the wheel increases, if that is important. But with 17 inch wheels being common now there seems to be little difference in price from 16s compared to 15 years ago so the less common sizes always go for a premium.
