21" 599 ride quality on a X6M

Just got a 2016 X6M and wanna change the 612 to the 599.

I had the 599 on my X6 M sport without the suspension and on bad roads it was terrible, good roads were great.

But I prefer the look of the 599

Drove the 612 and it's a pretty nice ride.

Will the 599 worsen the ride of the X6M.

Thx

612 is a 21” wheel. You should not notice any difference.

I figured as much but seen some negative comments on the 599.

You should consider getting some non run flats if you haven’t already, as they will improve the ride quality for sure.
