Is the ride of the 3.0 with SP as harsh as 4.4? (archive)

I'm looking to place an order for a 2002 3.0, can't decide whether or not to get the SP. I've heard the ride of the 4.4 with SP is very harsh. Is that due primarily to the 19" tires (2001 model) so the ride of the 18" tires on the 3.0 wouldn't be as bad? I'm hoping that is the case. I'd like to get the increased handling of the SP if there's not too much of a harshness penalty.

I currently have a 528i with SP and the ride is great, not too harsh, but I don't want to have my fillings jarred like I did in my 1993 RX7.

Thanks.
