Correct.

That being said I am running on 30 psi and I’m running 17 inch rims with Michelin latitude tour tires which are non run flats.
I did not think there were 17" rim options for the E70. I thought 18" was actually the minimum. Are they OEM?

Car still drives a bit harsh and really uncomfortable in NYC roads especially in the back seats…. I guess my gripe is that it doesn’t really drive like a “luxury suv” but it’s good to know that others struggle with the same issue.
Well, like I said, it's the sports suspension version. So it is always going to be a little stiffer. I drove one without sports suspension option and it was indeed much less harsher at 30psi, in fact not harsh at all.

I have sometimes used 25psi and the ride did improve even more. But with large family always in tow, I'm more at peace with 30psi.
