19 or 20 inch wheels?
I ordered my new X6 4.0 d and should get it next week. My package had 20 inch wheels with RF tires. I asked the dealer if they could change it to 19 inch due to fear of losing a lot of ride comfort (the roads are how they are in the city) and they said there is little difference between 19's and 20's in terms of ride harshness. Is that true?

You will not have any problems with the ride comfort with the 20 inch wheels.
I drive in NYC alot and the roads can be pretty bad around here as well. I haxe 22 inch wheels on my X6 and although of course i take it easy on the major bumps and holes, but she still rides very smoothly nonetheless so i believe the 20 in wheels will not pose a problem for you.

Drive it for a couple of days. See how you feel and if you don't like, swap them (should not cost you anything). While I love my 19s due to the roads here, as noted, the cars I drove with 20s drove about the same.
