The ride will deteriate, but that won't matter if you only want to look at your car!

18 inch for driving anything bigger for just looking at it!!

It is all down to personal perference. Some like it hard and others like it soft . You can't generalize like you do.

I drive 19" with the Dynamic Damper Control. This is perfect. My wife likes the soft feeling of the comfort setting, and I use the sport setting when I'm driving it. I really like the extra edge you get from the roads and the steady cornering you can do with big wheels and stiff dampers.

I would really like to test the X3 with 20" and DDC to feel the difference.
