Q: Does the taller sidewall really make a difference on rough roads?
It does. More sidewall gives the tire more room to absorb an impact before it reaches the wheel, so the 265/50R19 setup shrugs off pockmarked pavement and hard edges that punish a low-profile tire. On a heavy Model X, that extra give shows up as a more forgiving ride and less risk of a bent rim. It is the practical case for the smaller wheel.
