I have 20's on my V90 Inscription. Looks amazing and the ride is pretty good. I went for this over an R-Design on 18's and think mine rides nicer, probably because the R-Design is 15mm lower so has firmer springs.

The large Rolling Diameter makes the approach angle to obstacles less than 235/35R18's so that helps with smaller potholes and the tyre wall is 82.25mm which is pretty decent too.

Thanks for all the comments. Off to test drive a V90’s Inscription Pro over the weekend and I’ll see how it compares to my currrent 4 year old Jaguar XF on 18”rims - hoping for a positive result as I think the V90’s Inscription Pro is well loaded with a great spec, albeit missing a rear view camera which I’ve found useful on th XF.

You can get a 360 degree camera which you can actually feel comfortable using … It consists of 4 camera images stitched together well .
