Got the tires in on Saturday and installed them today. What a huge difference in ride quality. The 255/45s are not nearly as jarring over bad roads. Grip pines in turns is down a bit however I would sacrifice that for added rubber between the road and the rims.

Tire and rim question for MYP 2022

Tested today. I set cruise to 45 and then used the wheel to move it to 50. At 50 the speedometer app I used recorded me at 50.8mph. I’m going to test tomorrow on the freeway.
At 72 I showed 73.2mph on a speedometer app. It felt accurate enough to me. That also lines up almost spot on with 50.8 when showing 50 on the car.

I have a 2022 MYLR and a 2022 MYP (don't ask). The MYLR has stock all-season 19" wheels/tires. The MYP has stock 21" summer tires. The MYP feels road imperfections a bit more but the overall ride is about the same.
To soften the ride in a MY you need to look into coil-over springs from Unplugged Performance or similar OEM. They will run you $4K-$5K to purchase and have them installed. I have not driven a MY with coil-overs so I can't say how much of an improvement it makes but from what I have read, it is noticeable.
That's my 2 scents

T sport line now offers 18” wheel and tire packages which fit all model Y vehicles. I no longer find the ride of my 2022 MYP to be harsh. I think tires and suspension broke in around 4,500 miles.
That being said, I am highly considering getting 18” wheels so I can put them on if I am going to places where roads are dirt + rock or might be a mix of unsaved and paved. I also don’t feel like wearing down my 21” tires on road tripping. Plus, less likely to pop a tire on a road trip when using 18” or 19”.
