Wow! They look good. I like the color too.

I'm sure there is an increased ride harshness vs. 19's. How does it feel when driving?

I usually hate 20's...probably because most seem to be chrome, but these are nice. I still prefer my 18s though

Sorry i hate to brake it down to you but 18" is where is at, hands down. I went from 18" to 19" then back to 18" and definitely felt the incredible difference in 18" compare to my old 19" so i can only imagine 20". Speaking from Experience...

I have to agree, but i have never run 19's. I do think 19's are a great compomise between performance and bling. 20's are for SUVs.

Yeah I have two set of wheels 18" and 19". Running 19 on the rear is not bad at all, but on the front huge difference maybe because I drift? Oh well lol

It was not directed at any one person, it just seems to be the lay of the land around here. "Oh those aren't Volks, I better think of a reason why I don't like them or why they were a bad choice." Seems to be the way it goes, but maybe I'm just not seeing it right.
