Default Any problems with a 19/20 setup?

I have been searching multiple pages with various terms to find a thread discussing 19f/20r setup ("19/20", "19 front 20 rear", "staggered size", "20 rears", etc), but all I've been able to find is pictures of one guy with 19/20 Axis Mods and a salad bar wing who barely visits the board. There HAS to be more people that have done this.

There are a number of people here that have done 18/19 setups, and of course the GTs and Nismos come this way stock...so why is a 19/20 so unpopular? Or have many people done this and I'm just not searching the correct terms? I know the performance pitfalls of a 20" wheel, so that aspect of discussion is unnecessary.

If you run the correct tire sizes, you should have no problems

20s? Why on earth would you want to exchange metal for air? Please don't tell me it's a "bling" thing.

My bad...I didn't see the whole "I don't care about performance" until I had already posted.

How about this pitfall then. They'll probably be chromed.

I'm running 19/20, no problems as long as you get the correct tire size. 255/35/19 and 285/30/20 are good match for the stock rollers.

Well, have to sell my wheels first.

thanks for the info DHCrocks. Not sure if I'm going to go that route yet, but I thought it odd that it isn't atleast as common as 18/19s...do you have any pictures? Are you lowered at all?
