You guys must have not had 22s before. Rides extremely nice and better than all other luxury suvs with 22s.

You should feel my 24s lol.

Our platinum with CCD and 22" rides great. Most bumps are soaked up by the suspension. On really rough roads I put it in eco mode which also softens the suspension either further.

Interesting. I didn't realize ECO mode softens the CCD suspension. I never turn it on because it activates auto engine shut off. Maybe I'll try it, although I think the Platinum rides just fine in Normal.

Sport mode will stiffen the suspension and eco softens.

In normal mode, the CCD is wayyyy too soft in my opinion. It bobs and sways all over the place on the rough country back roads. The sport settings keep it so much more planted and stable. My wife absolutely hates the normal setting, she says it almost makes her sea-sick and I agree.

Rim creep is interesting. Seems to me it's a fashion trend, not much more. Our 2000 BMW 528i came with 17" rims, and handles crazy good. My 2018 Expy Max XLT has 18" rims and it's just right. I run my tires at 42-44PSI, so it's firm enough and doesn't wander overly much. I guess people like the looks of 22s on the Expeditions, I think they look silly.
