Did you have to get anything changed on the car to move up to 20” wheels. The Volvo website suggests you do?

Nope, just swapped over the wheels and tyres, I assume you mean that opting for the bigger wheels means adaptive dampers? I don’t feel any difference in the car whatsoever.

Having just switched to an S90 from driving German motors for the last 15 years, I noticed cars often get out of the way when I approach them on the outside lane on the motorways...quite pleased Volvo do command some respect on the road.

I doubt it’s respect just common courtesy, something every driver needs even Volvo drivers.
