330e G21 standard suspension

Hey Folks!

I am new to this forum and waiting form my G21 330e to be delivered in a few weeks. Anyone with the standard 330e suspension? What are your experiences? Is it more on the stiffer side?

Since the car is arriving during the winters, I need to order the winter tires. The standard wheels are 18", I was thinking to get 17" for the winters, would it make any difference in the comfort level? Any thoughts?

(unfortunately I was only able to test drive the Adaptive M Sport with 19" since that is only what the dealer had, and due to the budget constraints I had to leave the adaptive suspension out)

Not many miles on my 330e, but the suspension reminds me of my e34 525i. They are similar size cars. Controlled, but certainly not stiff.

I've had my 330e since the end of September. I can't vouch for the differences in comfort as I've never had adaptive suspension, but I've never felt the need to moan or groan about the standard suspension I have fitted. For me it is comfortable enough.

Thanks Guys! Good to know that.

I have no problem with a slightly stiffer setup as long as the ride is not jarring. I read somewhere 330e standard suspension setup is different (stiffer) compared to the standard on the non hybrids due to the battery pack.
