Will larger wheels make my new Golf less comfortable?

The question
I am thinking of trading in my Golf Mark 6 Highline, which has 16-inch wheels, for the new mark 7 Highline, which has now standard 17-inch wheels. Worried it may not be as comfortable on back roads.

Hi Nathy,
Shouldn't be a major issue. We've driven the Golf on 17s and found it entirely acceptable. Only the GTI with 19s seems to have any particular ride quality issues. The best advice though is to try it and see how it feels to you. One man's pillow is another man's rock...
Let us know how you get on too
