More weight + more rotational inertia = less performance.

But the 20's will make your downhill speed much faster. Think about that.

Performance is overrated. You need 20 inch wheels and a system. Got to have a system bro. And some cambers too.

If the 20s weigh more than you stockers, or current wheels then yes. If you manage to find some lightweight 20s you will be ok, but good luck with that.
