20's look just a bit to big on the 300 and 350's IMO. I went with 19's and I'm glad I did. It's your decision though so go with what you really like and want

Those 19's look great!
Please let me know:

1) with 19's, do you have to be careful about rough roads, railway tracks, etc?

2) did the ride get stiffer vs the oem tires?

Thanx a bunch.

Yes and yes. You can really feel the road with 19's and low profile tires and definitively need to drive more carefully around RR read and potholes. I'm used to it though and even drove that way withy stock setup. Takes some getting used to but worth it for the look.
